Notes

This is a lower ABV version of the Garth Pale.

Start whirlpool hops at 90 C and let cool to no lower than 80 C.
Split dry hop in 2 stages: first at ~50% of ferment, second 3 days before cold crash.

Notes:

  • Switched munich for cara60 to help build body
  • Increase mash temp to retain more body
  • Switching from Vic Secret to Simcoe for flavour additions to try a different flavour profile
  • Going for a thicker crush on the grain
  • Keep sparging to a minimum to avoid extracting tannins (maybe only put half the volume through and make sure its not hot)
