Notes

January 19, 2020

What a fantastic beer this was! Couple of things I would change. I would age it longer than a month to let the Brett/Bac kick in and I would go a little easier on the high alpha hops to let the Brett stick out more....Very Potent beer. Model says 6.77%. I would guess 7.5-8%
