Cream Ale 5 º

Fifth Hammer Brewing Co.

This refreshing Cream Ale presents a modern twist on a classic American lawnmower style. Boardwalk greets the senses with a bright burst of citrus, where the zesty sweetness of orange and the sharp, tangy punch of tangerine elevate the subtle, grainy malt base. Brewed to a crushable 5% ABV, it maintains the traditional clean fermentation profile and smooth, sparkling character expected of the style. The citrus integration creates a sun-drenched sensory experience that balances faint, corn-like sweetness with a crisp, refreshing finish, making it an ideal companion for warm afternoons spent wandering along the shore.

Appearance. Pale straw to brilliant gold (approx. 3 SRM) with a fine-textured, white head showing moderate retention. Effervescent and sparklingly clear.

Aroma. Bright, medium-high intensity of fresh orange zest and sweet tangerine flesh dominates. Beneath the citrus lies a subtle, clean malt aroma with hints of sweet maize and light crackers. Hop aroma is very low, contributing a faint floral note, while fermentation esters are low and integrated with the fruit.

Taste. Initial impression is zesty citrus juice followed by a neutral, grainy malt sweetness. The flavors of tangerine and orange provide a refreshing tang that complements the low hop bitterness. The fermentation is clean, leading to a crisp, slightly dry finish with a faint, lingering citrus aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Light to medium-light body with high carbonation that provides a prickly, thirst-quenching sensation. Smooth and well-attenuated with no astringency or notable alcohol warmth.
