Alright. Nice creaminess although a touch sweet maybe. Hops a touch harsh for the cream.

Golden color. Light white head, torriffied wheat, pineapple creamy nose. Light to medium bitterness. Dry, fairly simple. Creame Ale aspect doesn’t add anything to the beer. Dry finish. Meh

The latest in the Yo Ho Boku Biiru Kimi Biiru series they do for Lawson’s: An Easy Hop Cream Ale??? I guess they mean a hoppy California Common type of beer. The golden brew has got an aroma of green hop pellets. Medium bodied with a raspy carbonic edge. The taste is chewy grains, a bit banana bread like then a herbal grassy hoppiness with a touch of fruity character. Very gassy, overall a decent craft cheapie though Yo Ho being bought could mean it is not really craft anymore. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Light yellow pour, clear and just a bit of foam on the top. Fresh aromatic hop nose, light hops and quite delicate balance there. Bit green and still fruity. Taste is light, creamy and light hops decently balanced. Smooth and drinkable, quite subtle flavours overall, I guess it is easy to destroy this beer if you have this after a punchy American IPA, then it would taste like nothing (and that's how I had it first time). Light hoppy tingle in the finish. Balanced and light beer, very drinkable.

Second can, this time in a glass. It actually is a pretty deep orange, clear, with a low, thick head. Creamy wheat nose with lemony hops and some stone fruit is nice but a bit retrained. Body is very creamy and soft, under-carbonted actually. flavor is a bit sweet, lots of wheat biscuits, light lemony hops. It isn't bad. Better as a train beer than a taster. Can from Lawson's. This beer has the J-craft world humming like no other I can remember. Drank from the can on the train. Creamy, wheaty nose with soft citrus hops and some stone fruit. Lightly hoppy flavor, rather sweet, citrusy and creamy. Wheaty biscuits big time. Not bad, really, but not very exciting either. I would say it is more of a white IPA than a cream ale, especially as it uses wheat and no corn, but it definitely is creamy.
