How do you make the beer crisp? Finally drinkin Yoopers Cream Ale..tastes great, but just does have that crispness......it's too smooth

Grain bill?
with over 3000 posts and you don't know what a grain bill is? hehehehe
Good chance he was asking what your grain bill was, not what a grain bill is.
+1.. I didn't get really crisp beers until I started making lagers. I've made a few kolsch's that were pretty crisp, but it's not the same as a nice crisp clean German lager..
will see after this batch of yellow fizzy beer,,,,,if I'm not happy. I'll go the lager route,,but according to Yoopers recipe, it's supposed to be crisp
I will take a look at it.......wouldn't hurt either wayI'd look at your water chemistry. Even with a low FG, if your chlorides are high you get a soft, rounded malt character. Add a tsp of gypsum per 5gal to your next mash--should help significantly (if you are getting a low FG already, that is).
He knows, he was being a smarty pants...
