BREW NOTES:
- Fine mill lead to stuck sparges. Had to clean and re-try each time. Use rice hulls next time!!
- DID NOT DO SECONDARY BOIL!!!
- Somehow... naturally fermented. Maybe in the pills? Wild berliner I guess. Noticed krausen but didn't check gravity. Added yeast and nothing much happened. Saved trub for yeast recovery.

TASTING NOTES:
- Pre-yeast pitching, base tasted pretty solid! Truer to berliners I've had commercially.
- Post fermentation, also tasting nice. Aroma could be better.. but taste is on point.

BOTTLING NOTES:
- Key lime.. pretty damn tasty. Strong key lime aroma but subtle key lime tartness. Complements the other flavors nicely. Still may need to cut back just a touch on the key lime next time.
- Mixed berry is more sour than fruity.. but delicious! Has a nice color and aroma but not as fruit forward as expected.
- Blended the Espresso and Strawberry Shortcake.. and was absolutely the right thing to do. Best of both worlds! Might be my new favorite of what we've done...

Notes: After mashing, wrapped the carboy in a heat belt, pitched one small plastic container of GoodBelly probiotic shot (unflavored) and let sit for 3 days. Following this we racked to a pot and then brought to a boil on the kitchen stove. VERY strong apple smells, almost of strong cider, which is a product of acetaldehyde. reracked to Carboy and pitched Brett/Sacc strain.

2.5 weeks into fermentation, I dry hopped with 1oz of Lemon Drop Hops and let sit for 3 days prior to bottling.

Came out GREAT, however for the next brew I will use Pilsner malt instead of 2-row and I will also add wheat, per this is the standard recipe.

Beer had a very funky smell but tasted so smooth.

Efficiency came out very good but exceeded target ABV range slightly. Not a huge deal, can probably adjust by lower amount of grains. Although 6.66lbs of grains is why the beer is named as such.
