Take 2 of the Japanese Ginger IPA. Nothing wrong with the first version. Just want to dial down the alcohol a bit, dial up the ginger just a fraction, and the same for the hop.

Notes:

Too dry, and the hops are masking the ginger somewhat. Need to dial back the IBUs, and get some sweetness in, using either Carapils and/or a Dark Munich Malt. Should also consider a less attenuating yeast.

Tasted on 11/13/2016 by Apprentice-Brewer-US-GA

Notes:

Tasted prior to kegging (from fermenter). Pretty clear. Lighter color than last time. More a golden straw color (good). Nice ginger bite. Clean bitterness from the hop. Got a slight sweetness up front too. Cannot wait to get this in the keg and carbonated.
