All of you light beer lovers wanting to take a step over to the darker side will be very happy to hear of the newest offering in early January from The Brew House:

Cream Ale!

This beer nicely bridges light lagers and full-bodied ales: the malt bill is lighter than our discontinued 'Extra Special Bitter' formulation making it less dark and slightly drier; the hop profile has been toned down-great for those wanting to experiment with beers that are darker than standard lagers. It also makes a wonderful 'session' beer for the ale lover who doesn't want to get weighed down with something big and hoppy.

Cream Ale is a North American hybrid of Ale and Lager-traditionally brewed warm (like Ale is brewed), then cold stored (like Lager is stored).

Copper to amber in colour, our Cream Ale has medium hop bitterness and aroma. Although not as full in body as our Pale Ale, this beer has a sweetness and depth sure to satisfy a Lager lover looking for something more.

What if I liked The Brew House ESB?

The addition to the primary fermentation of a small amount of crystal malt (for colour, in a mini-mash) with approximately ½ oz. of Noble British (Goldings) hops-your retailer can order them from us at Spagnol's-will result in a brew that closely resembles our old ESB style.
