Notes

Brewed on Fathers Day 06-16-13. 95% attenuated on 06-22-13, begin diacetyl rest. Pitched at 48, rise to 50 in 24 hrs, rise 1 degree each 24 hrs until the 22nd, then set free to rise at will for rest. Long and low mash time in attempt to get higher attenuation out of yeast strain for drier beer, which was accomplished. Kegged on 06-29.
