C.R.E.A.M. — Citra Rules Everything Around Me
SMaSH Pale Ale • 5.2 % ABV • Collab: California Wild Ales × OB Brewery
When the beat drops, so does this brew. C.R.E.A.M. is a single-malt, single-hop banger built on buttery-smooth Maris Otter malt and flooded with nothing but Citra. Expect a bright burst of mango, tangerine, and lime peel up front, rolling into light cracker sweetness and finishing crisp enough to cue the next track.
