Notes
Beer came out awesome! There are a few changes I'd make though.
First, the melanoidin character is just a tad strong for my personal preference. It seems to be a bit too dried-fruity and verging on chemically, something that CaraMunich and Dark Munich malts contribute in large amounts (-The chemical flavor faded, it was from CaraMunich and was similar to a dry-erase marker aroma-). I'd rather have a fuller, bready and toasty, almost nutty character.
Another thing is that the hoppy bitterness is just slightly too high. This hoppiness, paired with the clean, dry finish lends a bit of a light crispness to the overall beer. This isn't really out of style, but for my personal preference, it's a bit much.
Honestly though, these are super-nitpicks. This beer is fantastic! I really like the interplay between the floral, spicy, herbal hops and the rich caramel and fruitiness of the malts. This is an excellent beer, and something that I can drink anytime. The carbonation is also spot on.
In competition, the highish melanoidin and hoppiness will probably give this beer an edge against other heavier, more cloying examples; especially with the dry, palate cleansing finish.
