One of my party favorite Cream Ales. But with a twist that anyone can easily try..... Add just a couple of small sprigs of rosemary to a hop bag. Crush a bit to open the needles. Dunk in Starsan or vodka for a few seconds and then throw into your keg. After a couple of days the rosemary will subtly flavor your beer and make a nice, mellow, savory flavor. Try it. If apprehensive, wait until your keg is pretty low and cut back on the amount of spice. Would work fine with a Kolsch, non-hoppy pale ale or a pilsner too. You don't want it fighting hops though.
Delicious and refreshing. I don't know why there aren't popular commercial examples.
 
HB German pils, our first try. Lagering for a month or so, getting clear and tasty! First round was our Flat Tire Crone, best one we ever made. Magic of water chemistry, plus Nottingham. And a new awning! Too breezy to leave deployed........

A homemade warm-fermented bock (or some might say a strong Munich Dunkel). It has been sitting at room temps for over a year and it is finally now carbonating. It actually has some foam that sticks around for a bit when it is poured.

And it drinks pretty good.
