Notes
Nothing too special in the fermentation here, except the usual caveat to start relatively low in the ale temperature range (I like 65°F/18°C) and increase throughout fermentation to promote attenuation and hold off/clean up diacetyl. Your yeast (if you’re using the 1028) is a great attenuator and isn’t particularly prone to diacetyl, but it’s still good practice.
And resist the urge to overcarbonate this beer. It’s terrific at cask pressure (about one volume of CO2), and increasing it to the “usual” 2–2.5 will probably result in a beer that tastes a little stark and Spartan. At lower carbonation, however, the malt flavors are wonderfully delicate, and your guests will pack this away by the dimpled mugful.
