Streaky Bacon
Vienna Lager • All Grain • 46 L
I wanted a beer that was not as in your face as a Bamberg Rauch but still had some of those lovely smokey flavours, and a nice malty backbone. Its fermenting right now!

Wyeast 3766 Cider
Wyeast 3766 Cider
Crisp dry fermenting yeast with big, fruity finish. Creates a nice balance for all types of apples, pears and other fruit or fermentables. Allows fruit character to dominate the profile.
Notes
Single infusion mash at 68-69C for 90min. Then mashout at 74C Batch sparged using Ken Schwartz's calculations (see HBD/The Brewery) I actually used Weyermann CaraAroma instead of the CaraMunich III but I cant seem to find a listing for it in the ingredients list. CaraAroma is twice as dark as the CaraMunich III. The wort was pitched onto a yeast cake from a previous batch and took off like a rocket.
