Notes

75 min boil to reduce DMS
No finings to keep the clarity slightly hazy
Start fermentation at 68 and raise to 80 over course of fermentation
Add Champagne yeast if fails to attenuate enough

Winner of Strong Belgian Ale category and third in Best of Show at Winnipeg Brew Bombers Pro/Am Oct 2017 (This yeast rocks, especially with a little aging!)
