Notes
I call this one Weihnachtsbier which is Christmas Beer in German. You will be delighted with the results of this recipe. resist temptations to throw in more honey in than the recipe says. Too much honey will make the beer too dry and more alcohol forward than it needs to be. I made the one last year with 1028 but had to switch to Nottingham because 1028 wasn't available anywhere. Make sure you use a blow off with this yeast. It's takes a while to get ramped up but when it does look out. The finished product seemed a little alcohol forward but after conditioning in the keg for a couple of days it already started mellowing out and you could get more of the maltiness coming through. Great Holiday beer. Cheers !
