Evening all
I recently had the pleasure to try Knappsein's Reserve Lager and boy was I impressed!
I've brewed a tweaked version of Ross' Nelson Sauvin Summer Ale a few times, and loved every drop, but the Knappstein was (obviously) pleasantly different.
So I brewed my approximation of the beer last weekend. It's still in a cube waiting or some fermenter space, but I'm hoping it'll turn out well. Kettle tastings were promising :chug:
Still undecided what yeast to use though. Any suggestions?
Has anyone else attempted a clone (or similar), or have any suggestions if I try this again?
:beer:
