Cream Ale

Cream ale is a type of American beer that combines attributes of ales and lagers. It is typically light and smooth, featuring a subtle sweetness and a mild hop flavor. Cream ales are brewed using a hybrid fermentation process, which involves both ale and lager yeast, resulting in a clean finish. They are usually pale in color, with a creamy, frothy head. Cream ales are refreshing and easy to drink, making them popular during warm weather. This style originated in the United States in the 19th century and is known for its approachability and balance.
