Notes

=======================================
10/22/2021
updating notes here to reflect that this beer won :

  • 2nd place in nordeast brewers alliance competition minnesota 2019 https://www.instagram.com/p/B6o7ZJgJoB9/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
  • scored 35
    =======================================
    8/15/19. this came out a bit darker than I expected, deep golden / orange; i didnt pay attention to the SRM of the specialty malts; but this is an acceptable color for the style.

    next time i would like to aim for light, yellow color. Could consider using only pilsner malt and candi. Byo mayjune2012 suggesting 80/20, consider using table sugar. Store candi not traditional and more $$. Step mash 140 for 45 the step to 152 for 20 then mash out. Pitch 75% yeast count than normal for proper spicy esters

    also the bottles were slightly undercarbonated at first but i think overall ok (ideally would be slightly more). Took a while to get to full carbonation
    =====================================
    7/23/19. Measured FG 1.010 so adjusting attenuation up to reflect. This will be about 8%. Need to reevaluate mash temp and time.

    I cant believe I didnt take any notes on this prior to now...
