Genesee Cream Ale is a cream ale produced by the Genesee Brewing Company, now the High Falls Brewing Company in the Northeastern United States. It was introduced in 1960, and is known colloquially as "The Green Death."

Genesee's brewmasters take an extra step of kraeusening, a process in which finished beer is primed for carbonation with wort instead of sugar.

Genesee Cream Ale has won Gold medals in 1990 & 1991, Silver medals in 1987, 1988, 1993, 1994 & 2005, and Bronze in 1995, 2002, & 2004 at the Great American Beer Festival.
