Tasting Notes
Clean profile with subtle candied fruit and plenty of melanoidin malt flavor.
Brewed this on 5/18. Just kegged 'er on Friday, took a first carbonated sip, and was sold. My best lager to date, easily. So crisp, with a great malt character from the decoction. I ran out of Melanoidin malt so I did the final step with a decoction. Between the decoction melanoidins and the touch of Victory malt, it's perfect. The 838 gives it a nice candied fruit note.
