Fellow Brewers,
I brewed the Austin homebrew Supply version of "texas blonde ale" several weeks ago. No grains, Malt extract and corn syrup. I also added a package of 1% alcohol boost that AHS sells.
1 week in primary, 1 week in secondary. I have drawn out a sample for the past few days and the FG is steady at 1.010. OG was at 1.048.
Beer looks great but slight smell, and taste of sulphur, (sewer smell). I have noticed this in previous batches much earlier in the process but this stuff is ready to bottle. I am going to let it clear for one more week first.
One liberty I took with this recipe was to dry hop with 1oz of Amarillo pellets in the secondary. (I like extra hop character in just about all of my beers).
Any input/thoughts? Sure would appreciate knowledgable feedback!
