Notes

Inspired by Duvel's Single Fermentation
--

  • sub German pils for Belgian if that's what you have
  • sub table sugar for clear candi sugar (that's what I usually do)
  • fuggles can be subbed for styrian goldings
  • 1388 takes a long time to clear even with gelatin so treat this like a lager and plan to enjoy 2 months from brew day.
