Taste Notes
Love this beer. It is close to the 3 Flyods. Would have to taste them side by side to tell the difference.
First batch 38-40 point beer. This batch not as good 32 pts
Added some DME to increase OG to 1.050
Mash pH 5.4
No sparge water ph adjustment
3/10/12 Ready to keg on 3/11/12 currently doing a DMS rest at 68 deg
3/10/12 Has a slight astringency that previous batch did not have at this point. May be due to not adjusting sparge water.
On version 3 try red wheat which is what 3 Floyds uses.This Recipe Has Not Been Rated
