Notes

Pre-prohibition lager style.
-Golden color, thick, creamy head; full flavor, modest maltiness, subtle sweetness of the corn; balanced hop bitterness; clean bitter finish from the cluster hops.
-Great attenuation, no esters. Very clean and crisp.
-Crystal clear, sparkling.
-Hallertau tradition can be substituted for the stryian hops.

Lager for 6 weeks. This yeast is very powdery but it will clear brilliantly given a good lagering time. Really good drinking beer.
-Any BMC fan will enjoy this.
Trying JY330 - Dutch Lager yeast from Jasper Labs. (Heineken yeast?) Outcome TBD.

(ARFARFAN'ARF - An old Victorian slang term used to describe a drunken man, meaning he has had MANY ‘arfs,’” or half-pints.)
