8/12/2018 4:07 PM over 5 years ago	+18	Fermentation Complete	1.009		2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	Read 1.012. Smooth, with slight sulfer notes - could be fruity notes - - hard to detect either way. Will cold crash on 8/16/18 and cold crash that Saturday. Cold Crashed 8/15, and kegged 8/17. Even slighter sulphery sour notes (no infections). Will let condition about 1 week.
8/18/2018 12:19 AM over 5 years ago	+24	Packaged		4.8 Gallons	2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	Vienna Ale. Slight sulfur and soury notes (no infection). Let sit in keg for 1 week before drinking in hopes this will change. Let lagers sit until September, then keg. 8/18/18 Tastes very good, still with slight sulfur smell
8/29/2018 12:33 PM over 5 years ago	+35	Tasting Note			2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	Sulfur from ale has dissipated. It took about 4-5 days. It may have been the yeast still in suspension. Lagers are still releasing CO2, but proper lagering will begin soon so as to provide 1 week of conditioning for the competition Vienna. Ale flavor is crisp with slight fruity notes. Reminiscent of a German-style lager. Quite tasty.

9/25/2018 12:12 PM over 5 years ago	+62	Packaged		5 Gallons	2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	Tasted good. Slight sulfur notes with slight astringency are the only detectable off flavors
11/30/2018 2:03 PM over 5 years ago	+128	Tasting Note			2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	Flavor is actually very good. A bit over carbonated (a bit too much carbonic acid). Mild flavor that is smooth and easy to put down. Would be a good lawnmower beer. There is about 4 gallons left.
