Tasting Notes
Very nice. Served at 48 degrees with low carbonation.
Lots of firsts going on with this recipe. It's my first English style pale ale, I have new equipment and I've never used S-04 yeast. Even with all of those variables this turned out to be a great beer. I made another batch yesterday with only minor changes (out of Williamette!).

I fermented this batch at the lower end of S-04's capabilities, 60 degrees F. The next one I'm keeping a little warmer, 68 degrees, just to see the difference.

BTW, the new equipment is a keggle and three 1500 W heat sticks.
