Log: | brewed 6/8/03, 19/8/03 racked and dryhopped with 10g Mittelfrüh, bottled 23/8/03 - it got down to 1012 which is a bit too low i think, should've mashed at a higher temperature. still, the vienna malt flavour's there, if not the body. touch too bitter at this stage but i'll wait and see how it goes after a month or three. |
