There's 11g of Cascade at 60, 18g at 20 and 41 on the end.

I see that now. When I looked at the recipe the first time, I just saw "Hopfner" malt and yeast listed and thought 'crazy Finn'

Don't worry about flying, I'll drive ! :super:


By the way, the recipe looks simple (though no Viking malt). Will try and emulate it.

Fatgodzilla:
I think it is better to use little bit higher temperature than I use (~65C). Or use a bit example carapils malt. Just now I change my fermentation vessel and SG is 1.003! When I measure with my brix meter. Taste are not so bad, but there are not much hoppy flavor left. It taste little bit like any commercial lager beer!. I think I use couple ten grams of hops to dry hopping...
There are something like 5,1% alc by vol... And it not taste at all...

Well, I wait that 14 - 21 days from second fermenter and mature it to bottles. Then I know better how it turns.

 

[suorama]

Well, now I can tell something how it turns.

Color is really pale yellow. But it still littlebit hazy.
Foam are thick and some keeps. Lots of lace.
It have a lots of citrus flavor and aroma.
It is a littlbit dry but not too much. Watery, not at all. Cannot taste of alcohol.
Moderate carbonated.
Bitterness is soft but there are a lots of it.

I think that is really nice summer ale.
