thanks to Derek for giving me a can to try
L: drank from the can
S: light grain, citrus, pine
T: sweeter malt from the corn, biscuity pilsner malt, lots of spruce from the Crystal hops - floral spruce would be a better description; pithy grapefruit in the background
F: lighter body, moderate carbonation, more bitter than expected with spruce lingering
O: usually I like Crystal hops, but they didn’t seem to meld well in this Cream Ale - the lighter malt was not enough of a backbone to this bold and pungent hop

I tried this at the brewery. It poured a clear golden with white head that is not leaving much lace. The scent had dough flare. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a good beer.
