We brewed this Special High Gravity Cream Ale in serious celebration of the return of the salubrious Spring... With the long dark days of the Season of Damp nearly behind us and the possibilities of a long languid Summer ahead.

bottle at Ft Wayne locals tasting - Pours orange with a one finger lingering white head. It has a mild hop aroma. This one tastes much like an IPA to me with heavy hops and just enough malt to keep it from being really overpowering. It has a light to medium body. Good.

Pours clear copper color with off white head. Aromas of pine and bread. Grapefruit hop flavor and big caramel sweetness. Medium body with average carbonation and a syrupy mouthfeel. Another solid brew from Lagunitas.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours clear and golden deep orange with a huge light tan head. Pinewood dry hops aroma with a mild spie accent coming through. Citrusy and pinewood hoppy initial flavour with a mild berry accent following. Mild caramel malty sweetness to. Lingering fruity and light finish with a light uplifting note from the hops. Mild sweet caramel malty into the far finish.

Bright golden-amber colour. Woody, berryish aroma with a plasticy alcohol back note. Sweet, woody, fruity hop and almost doughy malt on the palate. Not bad, pretty drinkable though more than two of them might get syrupy.

Cool looking frothy, slightly off-white head, which dissipates evenly over the transparent orange color of the beer. Rich fruity aroma, slightly citrus. Slightly hoppy taste. Plenty of malts. Not that creamy, compared to ’real’ cream ales. A little bit of fruity sweetness. Medium body. Taste is not excessively complex, but nice and hearty.

American Strong Ale is too broad. This one clearly states that it is a " HI-Gravity Cream Ale". 12oz bottle. Deliciously appealing doughy cream aroma. Filtered copper color. Deliciously creamy and smooth, with a piny hop presence. The filtering really does this ale right, making the hoppy tastes come through quite enjoyably. Excellent Cream Ale, perhaps the best I’ve had.

Really neat orange rind/orange juice hop aromas. Light pine beyond that. This is just a really pleasing hop aroma. Flavors are more piney with a nice clean sweet malt. Balanced, but fresh hops are def featured. Amber color, modest head.

12 oz. bottle from Whole Foods Charlottesville. Copper colored pour with a medium head that leaves little specks of lacing. Subtle sweet grain aroma with a hint of hops. Taste is citrus, caramel, hops. Odd taste to me. Not off, just odd.
