Canyon Cream Ale falls into the blonde or golden ale category. Characteristics of this beer style are a straw color with a white head. The aroma is of sweet malt with a hint of honey and a slightly fruity finish. This is a light-bodied beer with very low hop bitterness and no hop aroma or flavor. This beer is very drinkable especially for the craft beer novice (We call it our “gateway beer”). Canyon Cream Ale is brewed with the finest quality Pilsen malt with Carapils malt added for body adjustment and local honey added for flavor adjustment. Hallertau and Saaz hops are added to balance the sweet maltiness of this ale. Original Gravity is 11.2°P and alcohol by volume value is 5.0%.

Can. Light corny malt aroma. Yellow with a small, almost instantly dissipating white head with no retention. Sour malt, and grassy bitter flavor. Medium body, lively carbonation. Blech.

Can from Crow Peak’s booth at the NABA Fest 2013. Pours a clear golden color with a large white head. A big sweet corn and malty nose. The flavor is light and clean with some more corn, some floral hops, light dusty malt. OK.

12oz can, thanks Huhzubendah. Thanks.... Poured a clear yellow/orange color, a bit like a fizzy soda with a large frothy white head. Aroma was pretty neutral, light malts, some very mild lemon notes. Flavor was also pretty neutral. Not a huge fan but it could have been far worse.

Can. Pours clear light golden, small white head, dissipates quickly with decent lacing. Aroma is grain, honey, light grass. Flavor same, lightly sweet, corn syrup, earthy. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel. Not a lot going on.
