I brewed a "fizzy yellow beer", an ale at cool temperatures, just for this weekend. We're out at the cottage, and I have two kegs sitting ready My brother in law, who loves Leinenkugel's Honey Weiss tried the "FYB". He declared it "the best beer you've EVER made!"
I knew it would be a hit! But, really. The best beer I've ever made? This beer is clear, yellow, and relatively flavorless. No fruitiness, and very little hops flavor. I said, "Thank you! I knew you'd like it- I brewed it especially for you!" He said that he hoped I had more, because only 5 gallons of that wouldn't be enough for the weekend. This is the guy who said that my other beers were "good" or "all right".
I will have to put this recipe in the database, as a light hybrid beer. It really is good, for a lawnmower beer.
