This batch of beer was kegged on January 25th, 2009. The keg is being stored downstairs where the temperature is a consistant 46-48 degrees The flavor is malty and clean. The color is a copper orange. The mouth feel is very smooth. Very little to no hop aroma and just enough hop bitterness to compliment the grain flavor but does not linger at all. I love German style lagers. I believe this recipe will give any brewer the taste of Germany.
