Straw, slight haze. Bubbly head. Malty, slightly grainy aroma. Clean, lowish bitterness, mellow pale malt. Hey, it’s a solid cream ale I’d judge favourably in a competition.

16oz can from Tavour. Pale, foggy golden pour, one finger foamy head slowly fades. Grainy aroma, corn, sweet. Taste is bready, mild sweetness, biscuity, corn and oats. Smooth and really tasty. High marks from somebody who drank a lot of Genny Cream back in the day

Draft: Poured a golden with a white head. Aroma is malty, sweet. Taste is nice malty, full body but really refreshingly simple.

Canned 9/22/22, drunk 10/24/22. Clear copper-brass, small, off-white head atop showing good retention at cover. Corn, soft, floral-and-spicy hops with light bread and hints of pepper. Decent fruitiness, clean and well-presented, though with some of very basic white bread, bordering on light table sugar. Soft and fruity in the mouth with good corn, moderate maltiness and good attenuation. A bit white bread-heavy, though I absolutely love the corn. Hops are pretty vague with mild pepper. Bitterness could be a bit higher to combat the breadiness; but I suppose that's what you get for New England hops. Clean, drinkable.
