Mash at 154 for 60 min
Boil for 60 min
Fermented with WY1318 at 66 x 3 day then 70-72 for 7 days
First Closed transfer from primary to Keg
Susan is one of my favorite beers, and I have been lucky to have easy access for past 5 years
at Armsby Abbey in Worcester, MA, and The Jeffrey or Pony Bar in NYC. Currently at day 4 into carbonation in my new kegerator and just pulled first sample. Aroma is spot on so far. Taste is close but this is way to early to judge. My beers dont hit peak flavor until 2 weeks in the keg. Appearance is almost murky now; too much of the dry hop made it into the keg during my transfer so I will likely do another transfer to a serving keg in another week. Will post pictures and final taste impression in about 2 weeks. I have another 7 ounces of riwaka so I will get 2 more attempts at this.
Would like to hear opinions on what people would change based on their experiences with other HF pale ales and IPA's.
