Disappointed, though not surprised, that they've exhausted their supply of Anderson Valley Brewing Company Summer Solstice (Cerveza Crema) at BevMo! when I went to stock up tonight, but given that it's now winter, and the Summer Solstice is a seasonal brew, that's kind of understandable.
They do have in it's place though...
Not a recent picture, since this year's seasonal has 2009 on the label, obviously!
Oh. My. Word.
It's equally good as the Summer Solstice and stronger too!
6.9% but doesn't taste it.
"It's beer Jim, but not as we know it."
The only way I can describe it, and this will probably confuse a few folks, is like a liquid
Custard Cream.
Smooth & creamy to begin with a long flourish of biscuity aftertaste. (British sweet biscuits, not American savoury biscuits.
)
Heavenly.
It'll be a good winter...
