This is something out of the box. Pale in color well carbonated. Aroma is some kind of exotic nectar corrupted by ferment with some warm alcohol characers. Taste has the same impact. Flavors that remind me, but cant remember details lack of connoisseur notes etc. Eww it must be more than 7%?
I take this fine beer as a good xmas/new years present.
Thank you TSMILL

Name Description Step Temperat Step Time
Saccharification Add 46.72 l of water at 67.1 C 64.4 C 90 min
Mash Out Heat to 75.6 C over 7 min 75.6 C 10 min

Sparge: If steeping, remove grains, and prepare to boil wort
Notes:
------
45L water (strike water), mash, boils down to approx 35L (do not top up with additional water) which leaves approx 30L in the fermenter at 1.057 starting gravity.

This batch looks a bit more dark orange/amber-ish compared to other versions. If the beer appears too dark after bottling then maybe use lighter crystal.

8 days primary fermentation, 3 day4 days cold crash, 3 days polyclar:

Schedule
1 Pitch yeast

5 1.025 gravity, add dry hop
