I had this while on vacation in Seattle, dining for lunch at the Olympia Pizza & Spaghetti House. This is the first legitimate cream ale that I’ve ever had...I thought Boddington’s was a cream ale but I guess I was wrong. This was fantastic. Poured on draft (nitro pour). Looks like mocha/vanilla milk shake, smells really like nothing at all, taste extremely creamy, light malty and hoppy. I like it a lot, could drink often.

On tap at Hop Vine Pub, Seattle. Hazy copper colour with thick lasting off white head. Caramel aroma. Easy drinking nitro style keg bitter with some caramelly red fruit malt. Like Worthington’s creamflow, some hop on end.

Draught Yellow-golden colour; very fine & dense nitrokeg head, whitish. Lemony, and quite C-hoppy nose, and a somewhat lactic streak, difficult to describe. Bitter and sweet at the same time, but characterless. The head is, appropriate, creamy in substance, and cream-y tasting. Bit fizzy, and very, very watery. The arctic serving temperature doesn’t help neither. Yeah - one has to start somewhere, no? And it was about time a had a Cream ale rating on RB...

Tap Nitro at Kahootz in Meridian, ID Clear very light golden with a vey dense white head that looked like whiped cream and lasted the duration of the sampler glass it came in. Lacing almost completely covered the inside to near the bottom. Very faint aromas of honey, light grain and yeast. Flavors are a mild and somewhat bland, honey, doughy, notes. The feel is very thin. Light and refreshing and love that creamy head.
