SS-CREAM: Breaking All Traditional Beer Stereotypes

There are things that just mentioning their names is enough to evoke a world of associations. SS-CREAM Carton Brewing’s is such a name – reminiscent of the sweet cream soda of childhood, but also has a strong influence from the classic hip-hop. Behind that suggestive name is a true work of art, where the sweetness of traditional cream ale is raised to a new level with a proud alcohol content of 8.4%.

This is not a beer to be drunk in a hurry amidst the noise of a crowded bar. Each drop of SS-CREAM deserves to be enjoyed the way one listens to a piece of jazz – slowly, intoxicatingly, to feel each layer of flavor interwoven delicately. From the smooth sweetness of vanilla and lactose, to the warm malt base with a light fruity touch, all blend together to create a mesmerizing taste experience.

SS-CREAM appears like a breath of fresh air into the world of craft beer., proving that the line between classic and modern is sometimes just a thin layer of foam. And perhaps, behind that charming amber layer, is the message that Carton Brewing wants to convey: innovation is never destruction, but the most beautiful way to honor tradition.

1. History of SS-CREAM Brewery & Beer Line: Prelude to a Legend

Year 2011, in the coastal town Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey, a man with a burning passion for beer wrote the first chapter of Carton Brewing Company. Augie Carton, along with his partner Jesse Ferguson, didn’t just build a brewery – they lit a fire of boundless creativity. Their philosophy? “Breaking all the rules” – where bold flavors blend with classic brewing techniques, creating craft beer masterpieces that make beer connoisseurs take their hats off.

And then, one summer day 2015, that innovative wind blew up the SS-CREAM line - a groundbreaking brainchild, born from the marriage between traditional cream ale and the desire for breakthrough. Not stopping at 8.4% alcohol content (nearly double that of regular cream ale), each drop of beer is a story about the sweet soda ice cream of childhood, with a touch of edgy hip-hop through the wordplay from the legendary song "CREAM" by Wu-Tang Clan.

SS-CREAM's journey is a symphony of memorable milestone:

• 2015: The first barrels of beer were brewed with vanilla and lactose Fragrant, dare to experiment to become a "rebel" in the beer village.
• 2018: The enthusiastic reception of the community brought the beer into Annual Catalogue – proof of undeniable appeal.
• 2020: Perfect makeover with formula less sweet, more malt layer, touching the balance that makes the listener's heart vibrate.

Behind every can of SS-CREAM beer is a love for tradition rewritten in the language of innovation – that is the whisper Carton Brewing sends through every drop of shimmering gold.

2. SS-CREAM Style: When Cream Ale Wears A Limited Edition Shirt

If Traditional Cream Ale is a gentle love song with modest alcohol content 4-5%, then SS-CREAM is a more passionate, free-spirited and powerful rock ballad with ABV 8.4%. It's not just a beer - it's Imperial Cream Ale (or Double Cream Ale), where classic sophistication is raise the bar into a challenging experience.

Color of SS-CREAM like warm amber glow It sparkles in the sun, reminiscent of caramel melting on the tongue. But don’t let the appearance fool you – each sip is a collision of smooth vanilla and lactose sweetness with a rich malt base, creating a medium to full-bodied body that wraps like a soft silk ribbon around the palate.

Flavor is a party of unconventional:

• Introduction with a rich cream soda note, reminiscent of childhood flavors.
• Median is a delicate blend of sweetness from malt and warmth from ale yeast, with a hint of light fruit if you listen closely.
• Finish leaves a slight bitter aftertaste (IBUs can be higher than regular cream ales) as a gentle reminder: this is not a game for the faint of heart!

What makes SS-CREAM so distinctly different from traditional cream ale is not only the “hidden power” of alcohol, but also the way it breaks all the norms – adding lactose for creaminess, adding vanilla for depth. It is a calculated rebellion, a love for cream ale elevated to the level of art.

Each can of SS-CREAM is not simply a drink – it is aesthetic statement by Carton Brewing: “Tradition is just a starting point, not a destination.”
