11/21 4.70 HLT 5.21/1.081 first 5.30 second 5.61/1.015 final 5.27/1.052 pre-boil *5mL H3PO4@EOB KO@68F 1.059 O.G., 5.17 post Pitched 500mL WY1275 from bitter, set controller to 68F 11/22, Rockin' and rollin'. Set to 69F. Will move up a degree each day until 71F. 11/27@1.009@71F. Tasting great, digging the hop blend. Complex, interesting, but not overblown. Set temp to 68F. Will recheck in a couple days and keg with dry hops. Tapped many weeks ago. Pours a warm golden tone, with a white cap of foam. Aromas of lemon scone, grapefruit peel, and sweet summer blossoms. A drying bitterness across the palate, reminding you you're drinking an IPA. Medium bodied, with a much more sappy, pine-leaning hop flavor. Subtle bready malt notes float beneath the hops, mostly undetected. Finishes long and sticky with hop oils. A good thought experiment. The hop choice makes it feel old(er) school than the other ingredient choices, but still feels like a flavor from the past.
