You started with cream in your coffee, now have coffee in your cream ale.
We took blonde beer, then calibrated it with roasty coffee and a touch of creamy sweetness. Start and end the day with craft brew. CREAM! It’s Mad Science.
That moment... you wake up, shake up, hop outta bed, damn that floor is cold! Need something HOT to get the juices flowing. Let’s brew. Grind it, mash it, steep it, pour it over. Watch the chaos, the alkaline swirl through the roasted, acidic elixir. It doesn’t take a pH.D: Drop the Acid, Drop the Base, Drop the Mic...

(Can) Amber colour with foamy, off-white head. Malty, spicy nose with notes of caramel, coffee, pepper, treacle-toffee, dried fruit, chocolate, and rye bread. Malty taste with caramel, coffee, dried fruit, toffee, chocolate, rye bread, vegetal flavours of peppers and a mild spicy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and well balanced, with a good coffee touch. Nice one.

Skinny can. Pale with a big head. Smell does have just a hint of coffee on a volatile nose. First taste is big coffee flavor also on a volatile ale. Warming sensations, Coffee and some ever so slight tart peppers. I think I do detect some pepperchini in vinegar. Yes, its strong but not as strong as a 7.2% should be. I’m starting to feel a little medicated. And BTW, wtf does C.R.E.A.M. stand for? Come on tell us. A little difficult but not as bad as mast sixpoint beers I’ve done.

Draught @ Albion. Clear golden with small foamy whitish head, faint coffee aroma, high carbonation, faintly sweet taste with coffee flavor, smooth body, longish finish. The coffee aroma has a profound effect on the taste.

Can I just first say that I’m totally taken in by Sixpoints cans? I mean, I love these skinny things. Anyway, this beer is interesting. It’s coffee and cream ale, but its also like coffee and cream, in ale. In fact, that’s what it smells like: vague beery aroma and coffee with cream. Flavor is more beer like, but the coffee elements are there. Also a nuttiness. Tending dry, fizzy. Weird funky notes at the end are the primary complaint, I can’t quite place it - but it’s almost tart. Drinkable but I have mixed feelings about that finish.

12 ounce can. Pours a deep orange amber color topped by a large rocky white head. Peculiar malt aroma is reminiscent of coffee and yeast. Flavor has Java notes with a touch of earthy malt. Resiny hops in middle. Dry finish.

Not sure how wise a pairing a coffee cream ale is beyond its aptness ; C.R.E.A.M. kinda ranks as more notable curiosity than good beer. Nose is pretty flat, grainy with a lager-ish burnt hair undertone, and the pour is amber-orange with little head and no lace. Tastes...strange, the corn-laced cream ale sweetness rubbing against the coffee acidity in a way that benefits neither. Almost develops a cherry barbecue sauce roasty undertone not fit for man nor beer. Finishes like smoked apple juice with a mild bitter backside. Weird. Very, very weird.

Can. Golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is fruity, creamy, some slight coffee and mild sweet malty notes. Flavour is bready malts, some coffee and mild spicy notes. Quite creamy palate.
