trying this one as a hoppier cream ale to use up some homegrown hops before they turn bad in the fridge. Got really poor conversion (iodine test showed black even after nearly 2 hours in mash tun). had to add .5 lb sugar to bring up OG to minimal level. hope this ferments dry (sat for 2 hours at 149)
tastes like beer! that was the comment from one taster during the MMA viewing session. was good, but not great. not sure the kolsch yeast mixes well with this hops profile?? it's okay, but, i'd go back to my basic version of this recipe if I were to do again (use Saaz and a little centennial or cascade at the very end only).
