Notes

Start ferment at 12C then increase to 14C after 3 days. After krausen drop increase gradually to 16C for 24 hr diacetyl rest then gradually ower temp back to 12C for 7 days. Cold crash after approx 2 weeks, fine then larger at 0.5C for 1 week before transfer to bright tank. Larger for a further 3 weeks at 0.5C before bottling.

Super clear and clean tasting Pilsner with lovely floral/fruity yeast character. Great warm weather beer.
