Notes

Fermented at 50° for seven days; raised temp 4° per day to 66° for diacetyl rest; rested for four days. Lowered temp. 6° per day to 48. Rested for a couple days, racked to 2ndary and lagered at 34° for six weeks.
THIS IS DANGEROUSLY DELICIOUS. That said, I think I'd want to bump up the IBUs a smidge, bump down the OG a smidge, and even bump up the carbonation a half a smidge. Also maybe a slightly higher proportion of Pils malt relative to the other two malts. I want it to be just a bit smaller and just a bit drier.
