Notes

Red color is good now. I think leave off the loral next time or replace with something more complementary. otherwise pretty good, just needs some time. I think i'd go with imperial flagship or just really keep a lid on the fermentation - no kveik.

-------------------

This is pretty good, next time go with half the midnight wheat or a different "reddening" the color is a little brown.

Try trading Bravo for Loral in the WP and the dry hops.

Maybe back off the ctz a little and maybe back everything off just a tad. overall pretty good though.

Taking out the 2oz of Midnight Wheat which made it much too dark, using cara amber instead.
changed Bravo WP and Dry to Loral. Backed off all Dry and WP by 1-2 g.

careful with these, try to pin down

some combo of
mosaic - dank
cascade - light- pleasant
bravo - tropical no dank
ctz - dank sometimes?
