Malty brew. Medium golden with small white head. Aroma is pure malt, creamy mouthfeel, taste is more sweet malt. Right on the money for the style, lovely texture

Not too many creams out there but they all are good. Saw this and jumped on it after the great success of Session Lager and Session Black. Let's hope this brew screams, lets give it a whirl. Popping the top I get a waft of grapes and flat malt. Pours to a bright golden color with a three finger off white head. On the taste this brew is syrupy smooth on the mouthfeel, followed by a malty, sweet and only slightly bitter background. This beer is a pounder by all means, almost as good but not quite, as the lager. Great job.

Found a case of this in 11oz stubbies at the very end of summer. Very refreshing, exactly what I want in a lawnmower beer! I'll have to go back and get the remaining stock since Florida's summer extends into November. :(

11 oz stubby bottle from a mix-a-6 pack (thanks, Plaza!). I've had quite a few of the other Full Sail Sessions so was happy to give this one a try. A little late in the season for a summer ale, but it seems like a versatile/balanced brew.
L - Pours a deep golden amber, minimal carbonation, a good inch of head that goes away in seconds and leaves little to no lacing. Swirl the glass a bit, and you'll get some lacing back if you want.
S - Mild, citrusy floral hops, cereal grain, grass, some of that artificial fruit I've smelled in similar beers, nothing overpowering.
T - Malty, biscuity, bready, some fruit and citrus. Very drinkable, especially for a hot summer day.
F - Called a "Cream Ale" I figured it would have a thicker mouthfeel but it's very light-medium bodied, fairly carbonated, and goes down smooth--fitting for a summer ale.
O - A good session ale, not much different from the red-bottled lager, but has its own smooth, creamy character that's drinkable and enjoyable. Looking forward to trying the rest of the stubby bottles.

Think but lasting head, deep golden color -- very good looking brew. Aroma is sweet, grainy and bready with a hint of earthy grassy hop (Cluster?). It tastes like it was brewed with the house ale yeast. Flavor is grain forward and a bit on the sweet side with a clean, malty finish. Mouthfeel is a bit sticky but substantial--feels good going down. Overall a very good example of a Cream Ale without the nasty cheap adjunct taste.
