45% Dark Munich, 5%ea Crystal 60 and Pale Chocolate Malt. The Chocolate added late during vorlauf. Target 1060, hit 1057
FWH w/ Willamette, Chinook @ 60 for 20 IBU. Big hit of Willamette and a smaller amount of Simcoe @ 5 minutes remaining. 45g Keg hop 3:1 w/Willamette:Simcoe. 43 IBU's total
Pacman yeast, fermented ambient (18c), finished high @ 1018.
Great head retention. Sticky lacing evident. Medium body, could use more. Doesn't taste overly sweet contrary to the high finishing gravity (not sure what happened there). Nicely bittered. Subtle floral, earthy flavours and aroma. Hints of roast, loving Pale Chocolate malt. Could use perhaps another few percentage points of crystal malt. Nice beer!
