Tasting Notes (2)
Brewski

Tasted on 3/22/2015 by Brewski

Notes:

at conditioning beer was mildly bitter, not too yeasty and had a hint of banana esters on the nose. The fermenter box held very cold 55*F during fermentation and i brought it out to room temp at the end of primary. During the last week and a half it held between 65 and 76, which may have created some of the banana esters. Can't wait to taste the finished product!

Notes:

Getting better but probably needs another week at 10PSI to settle
