Cream Ale is an American original style, originally brewed in the 19th Century to compete with light lagers. Cream Ales became lighter over time, but our version hews more to the pre-Prohibition style. An old-school easy-to-drink beer named after one of our favorite old-school memories. (When was the last time you had to use a pay phone? When did you last even see a pay phone??) Try it with havarti cheese, chicken salad, fish, any summertime dish.
