Notes

Brewed as a "steam" lager version with S-23.
Also want to try US-05 for more peach/fruit yeast profile and may try WLP860 Helles yeast slurry.
If more of the actual Lone Star flavor profile is desired, corn may be better adjunct to get the sweetness and hops might need to be Willamette for bitter or maybe smaller additions to slightly lower IBUs. As is, this hop profile is subtle but definitely present and the Saphir adds a little light fruit/citrus and the Hallertau Blanc adds a little dry white wine to the finish.
Used Blackland Pale Moon 2-row for this recipe and it's extremely malty in flavor. Much richer flavor than American beers and more like European commercial lagers.
In a glass out of the keg or poured from the bottle it's pretty great. Drunk straight from the bottle, it loses its malt character.
