Hi,
Not sure if this post would be better in the newbie forum, but anyway...
Also, I'm from Sweden so sorry for my confusiong regarding units (metric). Ill try to convert
I tried to make a Czech pilsner (Urquell or something like that). I've never brewed that before since I mostly do IPAs.
I used 4,5kg/10lbs of pilsner malt
yeast was W-34/70
hops was 100g saaz.
Brew day went fine and also the fermentation. Hit my FG and ABV was 5,2%. It's been 3 weeks since i kegged it, and tastes good but it so "full bodied". Hard to explain but it tastes almost like a strong lager or barley wine, it's very intense. I was aiming for a much easier beer. Do you know what I mean?
What went wrong? Did I use too much hops?
