I wanted to create a beer with low alcohol, some body and a little hop forward taste. A daily beer that is unlike commercial light beers. This is my first time steeping with oats and from what I could find I needed an additional source of convertible sugars, not sure how I did but hoping it will come out ok.
Also the smell of Galaxy is amazing, I might have to make room in the back yard for a vine next to the brewer's gold.
