The cream always rises to the top of my window sill.

When I think of coffee beers, I always think of porters or stouts. However, more and more, breweries seem to be experimenting with coffee in all of styles of beer.

The Mad Scientists at Brooklyn, NY’s Sixpoint Brewery did just that with their C.R.E.A.M. ale, adding coffee, and a touch of creamy sweetness, to a lighter blonde brew, rather than a dark robust brew. The results can best be experienced through the nose, rather than the taste, but it’s an interesting combination that hit the spot pretty well for me. If you subscribe to the mantra of “cash rules everything around me,” pick up a skinny can (the Sixpoint staple) of this seasonal beer. It might just change your mind.
