Today's the day! Just poured the first pint of my first homebrew (American Cream Ale) from the keg! Turned out a little darker than it should have (too long of boil for lme) but its creamy and delicious! I'm hooked!

Thanks for all the help guys!
 
Welcome to your new addiction. If you want a lighter color with LME add about 30% to the beginning of the boil. Save the rest for the last 15 minutes. You will get a better chance of getting the color you want.
 
hows it taste, ive been thinking about brewing some for my next batch, ive never had a cream ale(not that I can remember)
 
That's awesome, congrats! I'm still sweating it out as SWMBO didn't like the hydro sample I took from my first brew and hoping with a cold crash to drop all the yeast out and then kegging and getting it on gas to carb will help.
