The OP refers to a cream stout not a cream ale.

This thread was resurrected from four years ago.  The highjacker said only "cream ale".  My more recent response was to him, not to the OP.

Holy cow. I didn't even catch that Dave.

Yeah, I was responding to mattmartin3053 who resurrected the 5 yr old thread today - he asked for advice on lactose in cream ale.

My bad for resurrecting it. I was just looking for some advice and came across this post. I'll create a new thread next time

Not only no cream in a Cream Ale, no "ale" either. If you want to try a readily available, recent GABF gold winning commercial example of Cream Ale - Rainier

I dunno...quite a few are made with ale yeast.  I think probably more than as lagers, although either way is fine.

Yeah, I make mine with 1056 @ 60F. Makes a very good cream ale. Kiwanda uses ale yeast IIRC.
