Tasting Notes:
This beer is dark but does not taste dark. It is very smooth. While sparging I could smell the sweet corn smell of the wort. It is an extremely easy beer to drink a few of. Smooth without much hop taste in the way, very malt forward without being to bold. I could drink this beer again and again without question.

Notes: Brewed 5/5. Final volume was a little higher than 2.5 due to less loss from boil. Corrected recipe to include this, and adjusted AA level on 60 minute addition. This raised the IBUs.
Dry hopped 5/13 no bag strait into primary
Bottled 5/20 - FG was 10.18 Lost a ton of volume due to trub with a final volume of 2 gallons. Primed with 2.3 oz of PS at 70 degrees with will result in over-carbonation of 3.0 vols of CO2. I didn't realize the loss was going to be so high. Yield was 20 bottles.
36 hours burped all bottles of head space by uncapping and recapping once foam reached cap to cut carbonation. Drank one just for fun, very good :) Yeast was very active and in suspension in the glass. |
