Notes

Biermuncher's blonde ale slightly modified to be richer and more malt forward. Bitterness is on point for my palate.
**for no sparge I had a 9% drop in efficiency, while others have had a 5% and 3% drop. Take care to adjust for your system.

20 days primary, then keg @ ~2.4 vol Co2

-wyeast American Ale II or North West Ale 1332
-No Sparge technique

  • **USE SUPERIOR PILSEN MALT**
