Horchata is a traditional, sweet, milky drink originating in Spain and Latin America that has become quite popular in Southern California, particularly with Mexican cuisine. Our take on the traditionally non-alcoholic drink is a blonde ale brewed with a heavy dosing of rice, cinnamon and fresh vanilla beans along with lactose for a litle extra creamy character. If you didn't know better, you'd think it was carbonated horchata.

Pours clear topaz with a thick and fairly persistent pale butter head. Aroma provides crisp malt, cinnamon and sweet vanilla. Flavor yields crisp malt, more distinct cinnamon, sweet vanilla, a fruity hint. Texture presents lively fizz and smooth, fair body. Liquid gold.

i like the bread pudding reference by Stoutlover, though I wouldn't have been able to express that myself. i will admit to at first being let down that this did not taste as much like horchata as I'd hoped. Horchata isn't this sweet (ever, that I've tried) and doesn't have such a strong vanilla presence. That said, once I got past what it didn't taste like, I really liked it. Both for it's uniquness, and it's delicious sweet but not cloying natural vanilla flavor and aroma. The cinnamon makes it's appearance on the back end and in your throat. Cool beer I'd get again if I could.

On tap at 10 East. A really nice beer, but super sweet. Like drinkin vanilla frosting in a glass sprinkled with cinnamon. Aroma is cinnamon, light honey, and bread pudding. Flavor has some light spice, strong vanilla frosting, more bread/rice pudding and sugar. Definitely an interesting beer.
