We make our cream ale just like the German immigrant brewers did back in the day, by using corn in a “cereal mash”. We grind dent corn from a local farm into grits and then boil it before adding it to the main mash. The resulting beer is very light and refreshing with a slight corn sweetness in the flavor and a subdued hop presence to let the graininess come through.

Draft at the brewery provided to us by Elwood, thank you! Poured a slightly hazy golden yellow color with a small creamy white head. Aroma was notes of sweet, malts. Smooth, creamy. Not spectacular, but I’d say this is a good representation of the style.
