1.6 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 3/20
The aroma is less than intoxicating however cream ale is not known for its aroma. The appearance is blonde and cloudy. Although I am very impressed with the taste and palate. A good beer. Drink and enjoy!
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at he brewery. Pours golden with a lacy, white head. Aroma of pale malts and hints of wheatiness plus floral hops. Flavor the same. Average texture. A decent cream ale.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: JAN 21, 2013 Draught sample at the brewery, Sep 2012. Somewhat fainter/lighter and maltier (toffee) version of their pale ale, still smooth and harmonious. Glad I went with the hoppier APA for the night’s growler fill.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draft. Pale yellow pour with a thick white head. Scent is sweet grain and hay. Taste is sweet malts and some grass.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Not bad for a cream ale. Definitely creamy and an easy drink, has a note of hoppiness on the back end.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap (growler). Creamy barley malt and hay aroma. Pale yellow color with large white head. Mildly sweet barley malt and lightly bitter grass/hay flavor. Very nice. Have to admit I have a soft spot for cream ales since it was the only other style I could get besides pale lager and malt liquor when I first started drinking beer.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Clear light yellow with a fizzy white head. Light grain aroma and taste with a slightly thin palate.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Yellow pour with creamy white head and lace. Corn light sweet malt and earthiness. Sweet corn, light paper, light earthy bitter. Medium bodied but fizzy. Decent cream ale just lacking something.
1.3 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20
Weak appearance segues into a weak offering. Very little taste, followed by an odd sour finish. A disappointment, particularly since the other offerings are overly hopped.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap at the 2010 Microfest in St. Louis. Pours a pale golden with an average white head that diminishes. Smooth sweet pale malt taste with very little hoppiness.
