Taste Notes
4/7/13 - tastes a little flat w/ not great body. Need to add more base malts (Maris Otter?, Crystal 80?). Metalic aftertaste. Possible getting off flavors from leaving on the yeast cake too long (9 days).
4/15/2013 - still metalic aftertaste until priming sugar was added. Too bitter, not enough malt. Maybe add victory or biscuit to increase maltiness.
5/6/2013 - no metalic taste, malty, lacking a bit of body. Grain profile too simple? Good flavor, but need more depth of flavor via grains. Hazy. Great color, no extract flavor, has aged already.
5/23/13 - malty, no missing flavors in body, but may benefit from something acrid/roasted. How to do this w/o changing color? Slightly increase hops.Notes
3/29/13 - OG @ 70 F = 1.050 --> corrected = 1.051
4/7/13 - gravity at transfer = 1.016
Very hazy and not dark enough. Forgot Irish Moss. Sat too long on yeast cake resulting in HAZE/Particulates.
4/15/2013 - bottled. color darkened significantly and is a nice red. Lots of detritus in secondary. This Recipe Has Not Been Rated
