Tasting Notes: Om nom nom
This is a beer I treated as a
Real Ale and had planned to put on a hand pump.
You'll notice the fermentation was only 4 days - this is because I kegged it as fermentation was winding down to let the residual fermentation finish carbonating the beer in the keg - no extra sugar or CO2 was added for carbonation. This gave the beer a wonderful, smooth, creamy mouthfeel and was a real joy to drink at only 3.5% ABV.
I put 2.5 gallons on tap for a party and it was floated in just a few hours, despite having 3 other beers on tap. I only got one pint for myself! A nice, flavorful, easy-drinking beer.
