Notes

First one (actually, 2nd one, but I over did the sugar of the first batch). The original recipe is no longer available as the writer modified it with other hops, so I decided to write it for my own use. Fermented with Fermentis Safeale K97, which absolutely rocks. BTW, as this is the second time I have done this I wasted lots of worth and beer due "problems" with tubing and such (and OC measuring of OG/FG). In the end, I had OG of 1.052 and FG of 1.012. This was reached in a week, but I let it alone for another one. Temperature wise, I kept the fermenter at 68-70 F (18-20 C). It is so easy to drink it that I am gonna be sorry to drink my last bottle, but I need it for my third brewing experiment. About things to improve, 1) head retention, 2) more CO2. Used calculator, but froze the beers after 15 days because I could not wait. One week more (or just some more corn sugar) would have worked better.

Note 1: The beer is nice, light, and citrusy, with some pine notes. Color-wise, it is a tad darker than the style calls for. Bitter-side, it is perfect but I brew at 9000 feet (2800 meters) over the sea level, so I think hops utilization rate is low. No crazy haze (used Irish moss).

Update 9-10-2020: updated the recipe for new kettle. Playing with malts as I ran out of Vienna, but have some other malts that I can use. Added flaked oats as I got good head retention with other recipe. I will ferment with S-33 to see how yeast makes a difference.
