Brewed for the summer months, this is a medium- bodied ale with a creamy head, hints of honey in the nose and on the palate, and a crisp, light finish. Honey Cream Ale is an eight- ingredient brew using warm fermentation, like traditional cream ales, but with the addition of local wildflower honey. The honey, which ferments almost completely, imparts a dry, crisper flavor. It's called Crystal, a triploid developed from the German Hallertau aroma hop with contributions from Cascade, Brewers Gold, and Barley Green. This is a beer loaded with competing flavors.
Wheat based, the beer is cloudy and yellow.
It has a spicy nose with some wheat aromas. A rich mouthfeel with flavors of coriander and a crisp but earth influenced bitterness that lingers. Orange begins to breep back in in the very late stages of the taste. As the beer warms, you begin to pick up a nice ginger note that stays in the background, adding to the complexity of the flavor. A very nice interpretation of a wheat beer, unlike almost any other you will find.
