Brewer's Notes
Happy with the result. Not as much Ginger tang/burn as I was expecting. I used Czech Yeast as I was making a Czech Pilsner at the same time. Try any other Lager yeast and Pilsner grain instead. 90min boil, all spices added at 60 minutes. Ferment 12C. 8 cloves (not tbsp) is a lot, please count them out. See Discuss Recipe for a PDF, units are hard to get right for spices.
