Commercial Description:
We brewed this Special High Gravity Cream Ale in serious celebration of the return of the salubrious Spring... With the long dark days of the Season of Damp nearly behind us and the possibilities of a long languid Summer ahead.

Bottled. Orange coloured. Unclear. Dense off white head. Aroma is citric and sweet with a caramelly touch. Flavour is caramelly and citric. Has herbal and flowery notes. Medium bodied. Quite dry. Ends on a really bitter end. Quite nice.

bottle. notes went downhill. Pours a clear amber orange with a small white head. notes of bread, sweet malts, and caramel. Not sure how old this bottle was, but it seemed thinned out and breadier than the last time I had this beer.

Maybe this is a stupid thing to say but why is this classified as an ASA when it says cream ale on the bottle and in the description - is it the abv? Anyways the pour is very lovely: really orangey clear amber color with a great 2 finger off-white head that lasted a bit and is now hovering at about a 1/2 inch. Already starting to lace. Lots of carbonation bubbles zooming to the top with some yeast floating around a bit. Aroma isn’t very strong and upfront but you get some sweet malts and resinous hops. Flavor is not as sweet or hoppy as the smell would indicate. Dry across the palate. There’s a flavor I can’t pick out here. The dryness of the palate is complemented a roasted malt quality. A great beer, a great summer beer.

I remember this being one of my favorite beers at the time I was down in Charleston, don’t know why i didn’t rate it until now. Will have to try and pick up a bottle next time around.
