I think I was inspired by a commercial beer, the name of which escapes me. Plus I wanted to play around with Mandarina Bavaria hops, which I had never used. 100% Weyermann pils. Wyeast oktoberfest blend. 5 gallons. I think I used some filtered water from a special tap I have in my house.
Didn't love this beer at first, and I still don't, technically. It has a certain rough bitterness. But the bitterness that is there balances nicely with the malt sweetness. It's also pretty refreshing on a hot day.
Brewed 11/1/20. Kegged 11/17/20.
9 lbs Weyermann Pils
14.2 g Galena hops (15.6 AA) at 60 minutes
