Commercial Description:
Nitrogen is what distinguishes McAuslan Cream Ale from the crowd. Draft beer is usually pressurized with carbon dioxide. The addition of nitrogen to the mixture helps create a thicker, longer-lasting head. The nitrogen also helps smooth away some of the characteristic carbon dioxide bite often associated with North American drafts. Our Cream Ale, known as McAuslan Smooth Ale in the US, has a beautiful long-lasting head and a full-bodied silky texture that make it a unique taste experience.

Verre de 12 oz en fut. Arômes doux de houblon herbal. Robe cuivrée, très belle mousse crémeuse qui tient longtemps. En bouche, on retrouve une base maltée honnête et le houblon résineux et herbal. Le houblon termine l’arrière goût délicatement. Rafraichissant.

Cask, hand drawn. Aroma has light notes of cereal, and roasted for the malt, pine for the hops and a hint of wood and a faint fruitiness. Head is huge, creamy (like whipped cream) off-white, with excellent lacing and is fully lasting. Color is clear light brown with a red tint. Flavor is lightly sweet and acidic to start and finishes lightly bitter. Palate is medium, creamy, and has an almost flat carbonation. Light on everything all around, but a very good pub beer to go with pub food.

Pours medium copper with notes of light hops. The palate shows the malts along side the creaminess of the balanced hops. A very nice and balanced beer.

Had this one tap at the Wooly in Guelph, ON. A nice copper colour with a standard white creamy nitro head. Weak honey and hops aroma. Flavour had a malty base, with notes of honey, with mild hop blancing in the finish. Creamy light body. Overall it went well with meal, a good dinner and conversation beer, high drinkability, but nothing particularily special. McAuslan’s oatmeal stout is really where its at.

I tried this while in town for the Mondial 2007: hoppy aroma, creamy mouthfeel, yellow color, mild hop flavor. Overall, I rather liked it, I thought it was different.
