Commercial Description:
GOLD METAL 2000 Great American Beer Festival! This light refreshing Cream Ale is brewed for those who enjoy a clean, crisp beer. It uses small amounts of Vienna malt to add body and flavor while preserving the light color. Sterling hops provides just a hint of spice in the aroma. Is now sold in Petco Park, Qualcomm Stadium, and the Del Mar Race Track in plastic bottles.

The beer emerges from the 12-ounce brown plastic bottle with the twist off cap a clear gold, the head substantial, creamy white that fades leaving a fine curtain of lace. Nose has a nice malt sweetness, fresh and clean to the senses; start is somewhat sweet, a bit of bitterness at the back with the feel to the palate light. Finish has a customary acidity, the hops mild in their spiciness, aftertaste dry, seems like a good candidate for a session beer.

Admittedly this isn’t my favorite style - so I wasn’t really digging this. It was light and yeasty tasting. I wanted to suggest it to the jerk next to me drinking Coors light. Who drinks Coors light at a brewpub?!

~Pours a pale light color with small head. Some lacing though. ~Wheaty scent with some citrus. Very light. ~Light wheaty taste, light hops ~Mediocre beer. Easy to drink, but boring.

Sample at Oggi’s Scottsdale (4/12/08). Pours a clear amber color with minimal light tan head and very little carbonation. Nose is mainly malt with a touch of hops in the background. Palate is much the same - malt with just a touch of hop bite in the finish. Light bodied. Pretty flat - boring beer.

16oz plastic bottle, courtesy of Odeed. Thanks, Jake! Pours a very murky, honey-orange color with something of a greenish hue (hardly appealing); off-white head with decent retention. Strange aroma for the type of beer this is: almost a tart cherry or red fruit character, slightly overripe, but watery with biscuity malts at the core. Light-to-medium mouthfeel: seems undercarbonated, with sugar and a slightly tart citrus character throughout; messy; finish shows dry biscuity malts and some dough.

Sample at the Santa Clarita location. Pours a clear pale golden color with a wispy white head that disappears quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Mildly hoppy aroma with biscuity malt. Light-bodied with lively carbonation. Toned-down hops and malt flavors with a touch of spice. The finish is short and lightly hopped. Not much going on here.
