Notes

Brew day 4/21/14

Mash gravity-1.079
Mash yield-1gallon
Boil gravity-1.051?


Final gravity-1.010

ABV-6.04%

Original aim was 1.056 at 5.5 gallons, actual OG is 1.051 at 6 gallons. Consider less water for sparge next time

Was a popular flavor. Tasted better iced with saison. Will consider Belgian pale ale yeast next time
