So I brewed a cream ale using white labs cream ale yeast. It's a small batch from a one gallon all grain system. I pitched the yeast at the directed temp, and a strange fatty looking krausen developed one day after. Just wanted to know if anyone has seen one like this.

US-05 has given me a similar krausen on the cream ales I have brewed. And even after 2 weeks and hitting FG, there are some large krausen balls/icebergs that float around.

It looks fine to me!
 
If you used the typical corn adjunct, maybe you need to add some protein rest, acid rest etc. since the corn isn't modified.
