From the shorty bottle in a snifter. This cream ale pours a clear light amber
golden color with a nice head of white foam that settles to a thick ring, thin pool,
and nice lacing. Nose of grains and subtle sweet malts with a touch of honey.
Flavors follow with exceptions sporting medium grain notes of wheat and corn
that are touched by honey and subtle citrus notes with a crisp sweetness balanced
by light herbal hops. Nice mouth feel, crisp and refreshing with a grain and light herbal
note on the rear of the taste that lingers long with bubbly carbonation to keep it lively
with light creaminess on the back.

Overall, a nice little ale.

On tap poured into shaker pint

A: Light gold body leaning toward the gold more than a pale yellow. Great clarity on the beer with a nice white fluffy head and good carbonation.

S: Grainy corn smell with a little bit of a nuttiness

T: light sweet grainy malts a little bit of bitterness then a rush of sweetness. Tastes of grains, corn and maybe hints of caramel and toffee prevail.

M: light clean on the tongue with maybe just a little bit of a cling on the end.

O: While not my favorite style of beer this one is well dobe and easy to drink. Drinks like a lager but just a little lighter.

Lovely opaque pale yellow colour with a watery head of white.
Nose is sweet straw with baguette and some bavarian cream in there. Piques my interest more than I would have expected.
Smoothe body has a little more substance than I anticipated from such a light looking and smelling brew, lightly creamy with fine pinpricks of carbonation.
Flavour is not as rich nor as sweet as the aroma, tending more towards the grainier side with some yeastiness and hops that give me noble impressions and linger on the tongue.

As an experimental addition to @WesMantooth's NBS BIF #3 box... I must applaud. I don't have a whole lot of experience with cream ales, but after trying this one, and especially with summer coming up, it looks like maybe I should change that...
Thanks Corey!

Clean gold pour with a thin white head.

Smells like an adjunct lager with a more substantial malt base, minus lager yeast.

Fairly sweet. Corn syrup and fresh grains. A nice touch of hops give it some balance.


Well carbonated. Fuller bodied than I would have guessed. A touch creamy

Excellent cream ale based on the few that I have had.
