"Creamy" mouth feel ?

(1/2) > >>

dzlater:
I have a clone recipe from BYO magazine for Slipstream Cream Ale, that I plan on brewing.
It is really more of a brown ale then a cream ale.
I never had the beer so I read some reviews and they all refer to the "smooth creaminess"
The grain bill is:
94% two row
4% c60L
2% chocolate.
mash at 154 f
Where is the "creamy" coming from?

hubie:
Maybe you're supposed to serve it on nitro??

dzlater:
Didn't see anything about nitro.
I am starting to think it's the power of suggestion.
They call it a cream ale so..................

erockrph:
Is the 2% chocolate = milk chocolate?  ;)

morticaixavier:
could be the yeast. a little diacetyl can give a slick, smooth oilyness. a lower carb level would also help as more carbonation would give a crisper, sharper mouthfeel. but yeah I wouldn't discount power of suggestion either
