Log: | Brewed 11/18/06 Fermenting @ ~70° - room temp. Had to thicken mash with 2 pounds of Vienna. O.G. a couple points lighter than expected. Was shooting for 14° Plato. Ended up ~ 12°. |
|||||||
Tasting: | This batch was a little goofy. Too much chocolate was mistakenly added to the grain bill. And the mash was way too thin, prompting a last minute addition of some vienna malt. The OG was about two points (Plato) lighter than I was anticipating. Beautiful color though! And the Belgian Brown tasted mighty good at transfer. More notes soon... |
