Cream Ale 4.5 º

Ampersand Brew Co

This refreshing Cream Ale presents a super pale profile, embodying the ultimate easy-drinking light ale. It leads with a subtle, clean malt base reminiscent of crackery grains and a faint hint of sweet maize. The aroma is elevated by delicate notes of grapefruit and citrus, providing a modern twist on the traditional style while maintaining a restrained hop profile. On the palate, the experience is crisp and well-attenuated, offering a smooth transition from soft grain sweetness to a dry, sparkling finish. This effervescent beer balances its thirst-quenching nature with a vibrant, clean fermentation character, making it a sophisticated yet approachable lawnmower beer.

Appearance. Pale straw (2-3 SRM). Brilliant, sparkling clarity. Moderate white head with fair retention and light lacing.

Aroma. Low intensity. Subtle notes of sweet corn and grainy malt. Distinct but restrained hop character featuring grapefruit zest and light citrus oils. Very clean fermentation with negligible esters.

Taste. Initial impression is crisp and neutral. Low grainy malt sweetness and a faint corny flavor. Hop bitterness is low, supporting a delicate flavor of citrus peel and grapefruit. High attenuation leads to a dry, clean finish with a short, refreshing aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Light body with a very smooth texture. High carbonation creates a prickly, effervescent sensation. No perceived alcohol warmth. No astringency.
