Good luck on that Altbier @grampamark ! Brewed a nice maibock in April .. Altbier is somewhat similar I take it?

What yeast are you pitching with that? Could an altbier work with Voss Kveik?
An Altbier is, essentially, a cold fermented ale. I’m using US-05 @60° F. At final gravity I drop it to 35° and leave it for a week, or so. It’s a lager-like beer which I like this time of year. A darker beer which isn’t sweet or heavy. My recipe is hopped to about 35 IBU (Magnum and Willamette) and finishes around 4.5%. A nice balance between the malt and hops.

I’ve never used Kviek. I’d guess you could brew an Alt with it as long as you could “lager” it long enough to develop the crisp, lager like quality which makes the style different from, say, an Amber Ale.
 
Yes ... I do that with my Kveik Kolsches... Kveik ferments clean without temp controls, although if you ferment really hot it develops tangerine, lemon and orange esters.. these flavors are actually desirable for a nice Kolsch.

I gave up on chess after getting slaughtered by a 10yr old who was calling out every move I made. "How to doing the blah blah blah block" or "Oh, that's the Queens Bishop attack 24.6 variant"...etc I'll stick to computers on easy mode. 😁

OT... Pre work, but my Friday Coffee
