Drain Pour. This was the worst beer that I've tried that wasn't a big brewery common as water lager and I will not go back just the same. Seems to have some decent reviews regardless so I guess try it if the style is really your thing and make your own judgement.

Not good. Just not good.
Poured on nitro to pint tumbler, so attractive head. Color was slightly more amber than would be expected for a cream ale.
Initial taste and mouthfeel were NOT what were expected for a cream ale. Bitter and several unexpected flavors.
Deschutes really missed it on this one.
AVOID.

Pours hazy orange yellow, +1" head of foam. Really light smell. Some lemon citrus and cracker malt. Taste is more assertive but still light..like most cream ales. Pale malt earthiness, light hoppy character that shows up in the finish as a gentle touch of lemon citrus. Definitely maltier than hoppy. Light bodied. Decent drinkability. I wonder what it would be like without the nitro?

Looks is very light but the nitro head is great. Would prefer more white. Just looks golden.
Smell is non distinct / not strong.
Taste is ok but a bit astringent.
Feels very smooth like a nitro should.
Overall would drink if nothing else caught my attention, but my perfect cream ale would provide a creamy softer taste.
