We use RO water. Target Mash pH is 5.25

Threw in some MO as I did not have enough 2 Row on hand

This supposed to be close to a beer made by Madtree called Rounding Third made for a customer who won an auction to brew a beer on our pilot system and this is what he wanted. I could not find the recipe that supposedly they had posted. From notes on the website, I had the malts, hotside hops, and cold side hops but no other details. So this recipe is just a guesstimate. Never had the beer so I will go off the customer's opinion to see if it turns out close.

4 of 5

This beer was brewed on our 1BBL pilot unit at New Magnolia Brewing, Houston, TX. It was brewed for a customer who won a charity action to brew a beer. The beer is supposed to be a clone of Rounding Third from Madtree Brewing in Cincinnati which I have never had and only had pretty much the ingredients to go by, no recipe. It turned to be a very interesting beer. Very Malt forward, with the crystal, cara red, and melanoidin malts coming thru. Hints of caramel, a nuttiness, and I think I got a bit of licorice. Although a bit subdued compared to the malts, I got some pine, citrus and a noticeable bitterness in the background. Medium malty finish with a light lingering bitterness. It leans malty but the balance is not out of whack. I think it turned out quite nice. Looking forward to the customer's opinion if its close to the original. I'd give this one a 4 out of 5.
