You'll enjoy it, I suspect. I mean, sure, it's not dripping with hops but it'll keep you interested!
I prefer hopped up beers, but I can certainly enjoy beers that aren't hoppy at all. Especially sour beers. I'll be brewing this next weekend and I'll be sure to let you know how it turns out.

So when you decide that the sourness is good, do you just rack from under the pellicle? Won't the lacto continue to eat? How do you prevent continued fermentation and bottle bombs? Do you just have to drink it fast?

I brewed this up on Saturday. I only pitched the 5335 and as of last night it had quite a nice krausen on it. I'm going to take a reading after the krausen has dropped and see where it is. I may not even add any Sacc.

I'm looking forward to this beer in late May/early June.

Interesting! Keep me posted on how it progresses. Can't beat a 15 minute boil, eh?

Drool. I'm going to have to try this. Think I'll brew some up on my next brew day, since it's a short boil and a small mash I can do it in parallel with another batch.

I love that interest in this recipe/style is taking off.

Yeah, that's just a formatting error.

90 min rest - check
10ish minute sparges - check
15 minute boil - check (although I figure 30 minutes total...adding the hops after the hot break passes, but that's just me!)
