Notes

205 degree whirlpool is really flameout. Have it listed as 205 degree whirlpool to get the software to calculate IBUs from the addition.

Solid beer, but needs a bit more character in our opinion. The hops didn’t come through as anticipated. Recommend increasing hops by 10% or so to get a little more character out of it. The Mandarina Bavaria mainly is what I feel it’s missing.
