Anderson Valley has been brewing since 1987 in Anderson
Valley, CA and they make a number of tasty beers. One very unique aspect of Anderson Valley is the people speak a
mix of English and Boontling – a mix of words that developed in the Anderson
Valley. The brewing company uses a
number of Boontling words to describe their beers. Summer Solstice (5% ABV and 4 IBU) is a seasonal Cream Ale
offering. So, Bahl Hornin’!, or good
drinking.

- BeerAdvocate
Appearance – This beer pours a copper color with a
nice two-finger head.
Aroma – Sweetness with a touch of vanilla – no hop
presence noted.
Taste – If you like a sweeter, malty beer – this is a
good choice.
Overall – B –
Very easy to drink and I have not had many cream ales to compare it too. I would have it again and I think this would
be a great beer to take to a BBQ to enjoy with friends.
Website description – “Summer Solstice Seasonal
Ale is not just your average summer seasonal. This unique copper colored ale is
smooth, malty, and lightly sweet, with a delicate hint of spice for that
oh-so-drinkable, extra velvety flavor.”
