Tribute to the first American woman to go to space. Brewed for my girlfriends birthday.
Ajuste Malte Defumado, redu??o priming 6,8 g/L
Used 1 gram of cloves 5 min boil. Hops are "Archer" a relative of "Cascade" obtained from "Charles Faram" Malvern West Worcestershire UK. Bottle conditioned with 1 teaspoon of "Table Sugar". Was expecting a haze in the Ale but came out clear, and very tasty, and refreshing. A mild taste of a "Cloves" and "Banana". The "Fermentis Safbrew Abbey Yeast" brought out good flavours. I Will defiantly brew it again
Made from German pilsner malt and an heirloom wheat variety that was grown, harvested, and malted on our property.
Burning off remaining grain I have
Quick Weizen for the float trip. I'm using a Danstar Munich Classic yeast which is supposedly the famous Weihenstephan Stain used in Germany. I'm looking for that classic flavor and will start fermentation around 64 and raise it gradually to 68 to 70 at the end of active fermentation. Hops change based on what's on hand or what I'm looking to add the beer. Sometimes I add a late addition if I want a little hop flavor.
