    Festbier Bee Cave Brewery Oktoberfest Ale

    I had the same experience. Batch is about 3 weeks old now and very estery (if thats a word). I pitched mine on a yeast cake I stored for a few days in the fridge from an EW Kolsch. Fermented out in 3 days. you would think that would eliminate any esters, but no. The original post said to...

    Cream Ale Cream of Three Crops (Cream Ale)

    Going to try this this weekend but dont have any Crystal Hops. All i have left is the Willamette. Looking for an opinion on adding 1/4 oz of coriander to last 15 min of boil to get citrus, fruity tang that crystal might impart. Any thoughts?
