Some notes.

I used Arrowhead spring water to brew this one. Mashed at 161 F starting temp, and then sparged at 170 F. Final fermentation volume came to 3.5 gallons with an OG of 1.050. 1 month in primary, then 2 months in secondary. Somewhat surprisingly, this beer turned out great. Just as one might expect from a typical amber. Will certainly be trying this one again.
