Birthday Amber
American Amber Ale • All Grain • 5 gal
Not for hopheads! Very low on the IBU scale. Shooting for a nice brew to convert some Yellow Fizzy Beer diehards over to the 'dark-side'!

Our "Brewer Patriot" strain can be used to reproduce many of the American versions of classic beer styles. Similar neutral character of WLP001, but less attenuation, less accentuation of hop bitterness, increased flocculation, and a little tartness. Very
Notes
Brewed morning of 36th B-Day! Could use about 1/2 lb more of Caramunich I think just didn't have it on hand.

Definitely low bitterness but really nice malty flavor. Don't think my yellow fizzy friends will go for it but 1 or 2 of the guys who've tried more than a couple of my mild brews will really enjoy this.
Many compliments from co-workers on this one.
