Added 2L of tap water after pitching. yeast.
FG was 1.014 - spot on. Transferred to 3G keg on November 11 and hit with 30 PSI for almost 2 days.
All foam after 2 days @ 30 PSI. Dip tube was also crammed with hop sediment, weird. Cleaned it out and working fine. Lowered to 10 PSI for serving.
First taste on Nov 13 2014. 80% head from the keg. Hopefully will not keep this up given two more days @ 10 PSI. App: A nice copper, almost light brown colour. Off-white head with good retention. Aroma: Moderate woody hoppiness. Taste: Slightly toasty with caramel maltiness. Relatively dry and clean. Typical lager after-taste. MF: Average. Medium body and medium carbonation. Overall: Good, but still a lager - not the biggest fan. Might be slightly fruity, which is not good for the style. Emma says one of the better lagers she has had.
Description: This easy drinking, no-frills beer is my first ever to be kegged! Enjoy 3 gallons of this copper-coloured, crisp and fresh lager with the underlying and complex characteristics of an ale fermentation. The resulting brew, a California Common Ale, will tickle your taste buds and want you leaving more. Here is some testimony: "Probably one of the best lagers I have ever tried" - Emma. 4.9% abv, 39 IBUs
