Excelsior! is a name that indicates superior quality, and for this beer we spared no expense. Brewed with copious amounts of malted wheat and oats for a smooth creaminess, full body, and lasting whipped cream-like foam. Then loaded with fruity Nelson Sauvin, Mosaic and Enigma hops for flavors reminiscent of ripe mango, Dole whip, juicy peach, and pinot gris. It drinks like a tropical milkshake. We named this beer in honor of the amazing Stan Lee, creator of Spiderman, the Avengers, and many other Marvel comics; excelsior! was his catchphrase.

Canning date is blurred.
Smell is full of balanced fruit, stone and tropical. Pineapple and peach dominate, a very light blush of berry late. Taste is on par with the smell.. with mild bitterness. MF is a tad carbonated, light to medium MF.

Excellent APA from CCB. Not familiar with the brewery, I'll be on the hunt for more next time I'm in the area.

5 oz pour on tap at Lures Bar & Grille. Pours a hazy yellow with a moderately-sized offwhite head. Aroma and taste feature citrus with some tropical fruit and a touch of grassy hop bitterness. Mouthfeel is moderately carbonated and very smooth. Overall a very flavorful pale ale for 6% abv.
