3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
A semi clear amber color with a moderate white head of foam and good lacing. Toasted malt aroma with some caramel and an apparent cream flavor along with some light fruit. Taste is sweet up front with biscuit and caramel malt and some vanilla. A bit of yeastiness and orange flavor mid palate and hint of bitterness in finish. Mouthfeel was creamy with a light/medium body and medium carbonation. Sweet but not cloying. A unique tasting summer beer with the sweetness and vanilla.

2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours a clear amber with an eggshell head out of the superior package. Aroma of bready malts, vanilla, and candy caramel. Flavor is dominated by a caramel/butterscotch flavor, but not in a diacetyl way. Can’t tell if this flavor is a flaw or on purpose. Light, great carbonation, and drinkable either way.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
12oz can. Clear, somewhat darker amber color. Thin khaki head, quickly fades to minimal. Doesn’t leave any lace. Moderate strength carbonation. Kind of a smoother texture. Lightly dry finish. Light orange, light creme flavor. Moderate sweet, light spice. Interesting, alright wheat ale.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
12 oz can pours a copper color with a nice white head. Aromas of bread, hay, light spice. Light bodied, light and refreshing.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Poured from a can. Reddish copper color with substantial head. Fruity aroma. Creamy texture. Weird flavor, almost like cherries. Not what I expected from a summer beer.

2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
I was not impressed on any level. Had it out of the can is very mellow other then the aftertaste which sticks out like a sore thumb and then your stuck sucking that thumb. ovr all probably a good summer beer if you don’t mind lingering natural flavors.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
A - Copper with red hues, creamy 2.5 finger head that melts into a solid collar.
S - Smells like Capt n Crunch mostly. Toasted wheat crackers, some caramel, sweet puffed rice, sugary grain.
T - Slightly toasted sugary grain, vanilla bean,
M - Medium body, lush and creamy feel.
My first cream ale so I don’t have anything to compare it to. I always thought this would be a style I wouldn’t like but this was very good.
Great aroma, totally different than anything I’ve ever smelled out of beer. This is a very homey feeling beer. Highly recommended.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
12 oz can from Wilbur’s. Copper and clear with an off-white head and light lacing. Caramel malty aroma, bread, spices, light sweetness. Light to medium body with a creamy soft feel. Chocolate malty sweet flavor with caramel, vanilla and spices. A unique and very tasty summer ale.
3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Poured from the can, lots of foam on a almost clear, deep amber colored body.
The aroma is caramel and cream.
The taste is nice. A dark summer brew with moderate bitterness balance with some malt sweetness; with vanilla worked in nicely.
The texture is smooth and soft with low carbonation.
It’s a lighter ale but with good flavor.
