Brewer's Notes
Note: This was a no-chill beer. Low efficiency may be due to malt stored after being crushed. 83% Apparent Attenuation from the W3638 yeastcake from a previous weizen. Step infusion @ 50°C, 65.5°C and mash out at 75°C. Sparged a bit extra to maintain a reasonable efficiency, and had to boil 3 hours. This was my HAG XMAS 2007 case swap beer and it finished at 7.7% alc/vol.
