Historical Beer: Pre-Prohibition Lager SchmiPielSchaeRheingoldter

Just put batch #2 in the fermenter yesterday. I actually used the 2272 this time as it was finally available. Can't wait to try it, this is the fastest I have ever gone through a keg, my friends are killing it.

Awesome!

Cheers Bob! I finally got around to making this and it's a winner for sure. I had to use us-o5 at a low temp to "fake" the lager yeast but it came very clean without any peachy flavors I've gotten in the past with us05. Lagered for 4 weeks.

Any chance on getting those historical papers regarding the history of the brooklyn breweries? I'd be interested to read up while I sip a pint.

Looking good! Glad you made the ale yeast work for you.

Good Lord, you want the research. I've been through a move in which we significantly pared down our lives. I'll see what I can dig up. I think most of that stuff was internet-based. Give me a couple of days, k?
