Brewed this last night and curious how it turns out. Just added the first round of dry hop although ddh may not make sense with this yeast. I also wished I would have used some Vienna malt in the grist as well

The hops should pair well with the light caramel malt.
I like it

Thanks! I feel like I should have used more but I normally use crystal sparingly out of habit

I think in a hoppy beer you'll be better served by getting sweetness from other base grains instead of crystal malt.

Kegged this last night and it is carbed now. Early impressions are notes of bitter melon, tart strawberry, lemon/grapefruit, and white pepper. Aroma is a little underwhelming but I’m excited to see how this one develops in the next couple of weeks.

never used calista, so i dont know what that tastes like, but I love Amarillo. I like the generous use of gypsum to bring out the bitter.

if I had any nit to pick, it would be fermentation temps. not really a lager at that temp. I am sure it is still tasty

That is inaccurate. It was at 50F for 5 days then ramped up over the next 6 days. It’s a lager. Somehow the recipe link isn’t up to date….

Ok, I take it back.
