Recipe produced an excellent Amber Colored, Hoppy American Pale Ale.
This beer scored 42/50 and took 3rd place in a local homebrew contest. It was likely the simplest beer entered.
Sept 11: I have brewed this beer 3 times now. The last 2 times I used Omega's Voss Kveik in a starter. Brew Saturday, add 2nd dry hop on Wednesday, bottle the next Saturday. Still Excellent!
