This beer was delicious! I was a bit disappointed during the lagering phase. The lime I was hoping to get from the motueka hops didn't come through at all until about 3 weeks. At 3 weeks of lagering, it really started to come through and all the flavors were melding really well. Nice bready backbone with the hint of lime from the hops. Dry hop could be increased a little bit but I wouldn't go crazy. Maybe up it to 2.5oz in the DH...
Update 05/10/2021
Brewed this again. As it was previously, this was a hit with our Howler club. Increased the dry hop to 2.5oz and it worked perfectly. Great, subtle lime flavor/aroma from the Motueka. This was definitely more clear than the last one as well. This will be one of our regular rotations for sure!
Update 05/18/2023 - Brewed scaled up version
Brewing this recipe on the 1bbl system, we noticed some changes. The corn character came through very strong. Not in a bad way. However, the balance between the corn and the hops is not as perfect at the 1 bbl size. Next time, we'll drop the corn down to maybe 12-13% and increase the hopping rate just a touch. Overall, as usual, great beer for May.
Update 2/6/2024 - Modified grains per last update. Reduced flaked corn by approx. 4-5% (3.2 lbs). Slightly raised amounts of vienna and 2 row to account for reduction in flaked corn.
