Smooth with a slight lingering hop after taste

Brew house efficiency was slightly better than expected and OG was 1.60 with FG of 1.010 having a ABV of 6.60%, darn. Primary fermentation for 6 days with 1 litre yeast starter made up 3 days prior to brewing. Racked to secondary and fermented for 15 days then chilled fermenter to 32 degrees for 2 days and filtered to corney kegs. Great beer.Excellent white head. The Germans like lots of Flower (Head). Try it. Check out brickyardbrewery.com. I always jump start my Wyeast slap packs 3 to 4 days ahead of brewing.
