16oz can. Pretty enjoyable Cream Ale in most respects. Easy, approachable, medium bodied. The sweet yeasty tone of a more classical Cream Ale has sort of been replaced by lactose. Pleasant mild hop balance. Certainly is crushable.

Sample at McFleshman's Lagerfest, 10/7/23. Clear gold, thin tan head, average retention. Aroma of bready malt, citrus. Taste matches. Crisp. The part of the event where rating quality starts declining.

16oz can. More blueberry than cheesecake. Kind of needs that graham cracker flavor, guess they approximate it with the almond. Kind of clear, filtered purple. Needs a little more thickness to give it a proper feel. OK for a sugary flavored creature.

Sweet, big. Somewhat OK classical IIPA tones, but a little too sweet for me. Grapefruit flavoring is never a bonus. Good for Gluten reduced I suppose.

16oz can. Natural Flavors is generally not what I'm looking for. Soda-like carbonation, not much head. Creamy and sweet body, no real balance. Leans into the sweet additives which aren't desirable in the first place. Not that impressive.
