Perfectly light and creamy

I decided I wanted to do a cream ale with peach flavoring (Peaches and Cream) so I used this recipe as the base. This recipe was perfect, and simple. I used Burton on Trent salts with distilled water, and put in the peach flavoring at the start of the primary fermentation. The final product is the best beer I have brewed, and my wifes favorite. Thanks Anne!
