Camerons Cream Ale

bottle: goldy colour. didn’t get much of an aroma to type of. Sweet malty taste, perhaps some hops. Seemed thin.

Bottle at The Esplanade Bier Mrkt. Pours a clear pale gold with a small diminishing white head. Aroma’s sweet, a touch vegetal (I think, there’s something odd here, like a vegetal yeasty sour thing going on -- best I can explain it) along with some fruit and light hops. Flavour of sweet malt, grain, fruit and light floral hops. A bit vegetal again. Light bitter finish. Average bodied. For a Cream Ale, a style that’s rarely any good, this is alright, I still don’t much care for it though.

355ml Bottle: Pours a very vibrant gold colour, started off with some foamy white head and quickly dissipated. Slightly sour malt aroma, bit of grass, milk, bread; not bad, interesting. Flavour is mild with decent bittering and floral hops with fruity melon and peach notes, alongside a very muted sweetness. Pretty good, but mine had an unfortunate metallic taste that I’m sure is just an off-batch and not part of the recipe. I’d like to try one on draught to compare.

341ml bottle from a 9-pack that I finally got around to buying. Pours a very nice deep golden colour with a very small white head. The aroma is what I expected, very nice blending of creamy malts with some grassy hops. The flavour is more or less the same, perfect balance though, not as much of a creamy texture as I was hoping, but still pretty damn good. A very enjoyable beer, and a great cream ale. I think this style is actually kind of neat, and always extremely drinkable!
