Notes

Used to build the yeast cake for more extreme Belgian recipes so it has a lower abv than most example of the style.

The cake from this batch was used for https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/1202382/quadbeyan-belgian-dark

I probably shouldn't have dry hopped this beer but I was very curious to know what the H. tradition hops tasted like so I added 15g to the keg.

3 of 5

It was definitely crisp and drinkable but not one of my best beers.
For some reason it was smelled a lot like sulphur and it took a couple of weeks to get that out. Then it had a lingering strange taste which might have been the dry hopping or might have been the esters from the ferment. I think next time I'd leave it fermenting for longer and not dry hop it. I might let the temperature free rise to the low 20's to make the yeast happier.
