Notes

3 gal BIAB riff on 'Merica by Prairie Ales. Their brew is single malt single hop, but I've added a bit of rye to complement the spice of farmhouse yeast. Plus, nelson hops + rye is amazing (thanks Alpine).

Ideally would have been 5.5 lbs of German pils, but brew show only had 5lbs on hand.

Brewed 12/10/13 by myself

Trouble with mash temp - jumped to 155 at one point, but I immediately pulled the grains out until the wort cooled to 150.
