Fantastic!

Easy to brew, Easier to drink. The second fermentation I let it sit at 65 for 17 days, Filtered it down to .5 micron and kegged it for a few days with force carb. I can tell already it is going to get better with age!

Agree with first review...an easy beer to brew. I let it set on primary for about 2 weeks (if I remember correctly, did not have notes on it) and then kegged it with force carbonation. Tasted it once fully carb'd and it was good, not great, with a bit of sharpness on the edge. Once it sat for about a month in my keezer it really improved, which tells me a secondary ferment would have done it good. Have had many compliments on it and will make it again. A really nice recipe.
