You talking about an equivalent to Rickard's Radler? If so, I believe that's just a beer cocktail in a can. I'd experiment with a mixture of grapefruit juice + simple sugar + maybe some club soda and add it to a glass of your cream ale. You could probable make a jug of the grapefruit juice mix to have on hand. and just play with the amount you add to the beer. Or hell, just try some of that grapefruit cocktail juice.

That's the route I would take anyways.

Half beer, half lemonade is the traditional recipe. I tried to get my wife into beer using the Austrian one sold in the NSLC. She was not a fan. I think the stiegl one is grapefruit like the rickards one.

I have yet to make one, but what I do is mix lighter beer with some grapefruit cocktail juice and club soda in a 50/25/25 ratio. Very refreshing drink. I guess you could easily mix one in a keg to have it on tap, just have to kill off the yeast from the beer first with some campden tablets.
