Notes
They say opposites attract. It must be true because I am a true "hop-head" while my wife prefers a less hoppy brew. This ale was brewed for her tastes with just a hint of hop flavor and aroma and fairly good malty tones. I used a single step mash at 156° for 45 minutes followed by mash out at 174°. Sparged with 172° water. Force cooled and fermented at 70° for 7 days, then racked to a secondary and held at 50° for 7 days. Kegged and carbonated at 13 psi, this was very drinkable after 2 weeks, but according to my wife, perfectly mellow after about 1 1/2 months.
