Notes

Copied the recipe from https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/brewer/48100/brewer-joe. Loved the name so kept it but did make some adjustments based on what I have on hand. Looking for a clean and easy Marzen style Oktoberfest. That time of year!

From Brewer-Joe:
This brew is for those that want to make a Oktoberfest style homebrew but do not have the capacity to lager or use a fermentation temperature control chamber. We are using American Ale yeast in the place of the traditional lager yeast.

You can also use WLP001 in place of US-05.
