EASIER than Pale Lager: Brewing a CREAM ALE with KVEIK Yeast | Grain to Glass | How to Cereal Mash

In this video, I brewed one of the only styles of beer ever to originate in the United States: Cream Ale. Contrary to the name, cream ale has no cream or lactose in it, and it basically just a lightly hopped all pilsner beer with some corn adjunct. It turns out this tastes very similar to an American Pale Lager, except fermented with ale yeast instead. A good option for brewers who want lager character but dont have the fermentation setup for lagering. Also I cover how to do a cereal mash: where you can extract sugars from unmalted grains: wheat, oats, corn, rice, etc. Overall this beer turned out pretty good. Unfortunately it didnt drop 100% clean but tasted clean, with a slight lemon note. Very pleasant and super refreshing.
