Notes

Pale yellow, smooth, malt forward, light and crisp body, can taste just a bit of sweetness from the corn. A bit of diacetyl initially, which I find is common with this yeast, even with several days of diacetyl rest. It will dissipate completely with time. This beer is best after minimum 4+ weeks lagering. I think it's better kegged with that fizzy carbonic bite.

Clean taste, no fruity aftertastes. Hop aroma at the end of swallow, dry and drinkable. I've tried Galeana hop additions but find its a bit harsh. Much better with noble hops at 10min. Goes good on a hot day in the water and sunburn.

Still did not make me the most interesting man in the world....
