This was Heineken's attempt in 1939 to make a seasonal beer brewed in the spring and served later in the summer very much like a German Märzen. It was only brewed in 1939 and then abandoned. The idea was to have a Bok strength beer but much paler in color. I made this in January and just started pouring from the keg about two weeks ago and it's gone already.
This recipe originated on Ron Pattinson's Shut Up About Barclay Perkins blog and is taken from the Heineken brew logs. His blog post included the decoction mash schedule but I did a simple infusion mash instead.
