Falconers Flight with WLP090 San Diego Super Yeast

[Jsuds]

Just tapped into this batch right in time for Memorial Day. I'm very happy with the Falconers Flight from Hopunion and the WLP090 San Diego Super Yeast. The hops are clean and balanced with grapefruit and pine notes and the yeast was supper efficient and very clean and clear. I lowered my Mash temp to 148 cold crashed for three days and have the clearest beer I've made thus far. Highly recommend a blow off for the WLP090, oh buddy.

Mashed @ 148 for 60 minutes
11 gallons
Burton on Trent water profile
6.5 abv
67 IBU

80% Two row

4 oz Centennial @ 20
2 oz Falconers @ 15
2 oz Falconers @ 5
2 oz Citra @ 5

Dry hopped in the keg with 3 oz of Centennial. First late hop only batch and it worked very well.

Looks good. I just bottled my Falconer's Flight DIPA yesterday. I brewed it with 2-row, Munich and some crystal. I used all Falconer's Flight hops for my 2.5-gallon batch. It smelled and tasted delicious.

These next three weeks are going to be difficult...

I made a pale ale in December with Falconer's Flight and really liked it as well:
