Notes: Pre-conditioning sample - Classic golden blonde color, nice banana notes, soft rich flavor. Good final product, need to try again using liquid yeast. Concerned that the dry yeast imparts a slight tart/sourness. |

-- A yeast starter and 2-stage fermentation is highly recommended
for this beer.
-- 6 gallon batch size - This recipe has been calculated to
produce 6 gallons to accommodate wort losses due to the
ridiculous amount of hops
