Commercial Description:
Remarkably smooth for a full-flavoured beer. Our founder's intention was to combine the refreshing taste of a German lager with the distinctive taste of an English Ale without blending the two.

This cream ale pours a light orange gold color from a 12oz bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head. Aroma is corn, malty and sweet. A medium to light bodied ale. Malts are corn and cereal, some grass. Not much flavor at all really. Kind of thin and watery, sort of like beer flavored water. OK for a cream ale its not that bad..yes it is. Lively carbonation. Lots of corn flavors. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is crisp and clean. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

Very light yellow, with a surprisingly decent head. Slight aroma. A rather thin body, but that goes along well with the flavor. Sort of like a pale lager with a little added bitterness to keep your mouth from going to sleep. Extremely drinkable.

I remember when I first drinked that beer, I’ve found it really tasteful, maybe a little too much for my young age at the time. But a few weeks ago I’ve drinked another Cream Ale and I definitely liked the taste, quite watery at first, but has a great comeback. this beer is quite tasty, but you certainly don’t want to get a hangover with those. great beer overall but maybe just alittle too watery.

Bottle. Pass it up! The description says "smooth for a full-flavoured beer" - well the flavor police must’ve stolen the goods outta my bottle! Head was weak and fizzy. This was a pale lager-like beer with a pissy taste. All that was missing was the aluminum taste and it could’ve been a Coor’s product.

Smells corny, looks a bit better than what I expected. Golden with a lasting sort of white, sort of not head. Tastes far better than I expected, it actually has hops that I can taste in it. The palate is acceptable. This came from a brown bottle not a clear bottle, maybe this is why I found it acceptable rather than not.

Draft at the Cactus Cantina in Vancouver. Pale straw colored bour with a thin white head that basically wasn’t really even there. There was a minimal hops scent but not much. This brew was boring as hell basically a macro with a touch of something more.

[074-20061023] 341mL. Watery beery earth aroma, like pizza dough. Pale golden body with many big bubbles throughout and a long-lasting fluffy white head. Metallic taste though not tinny, kind of smooth and earthy and unmemorable at first then after a while become an ew-y fruity bark. OK mouth, fairly non-offensive (at first). Good for a pizza and beer games night, I guess.
