| This turned out to be a very good beer. A good hop presence, yet not overly bitter and a nice clean copper color. Very drinkable and tasty. I made this at the beginning of my first summer in Oregon. It was also the beer that I first used a Cornelius keg. I emptied my refridgerator of most of it's contents (I didn't have to take out much!) and had it flowing from there. Because the keg made it so easy, and because this is an excellent summer beverage, this keg went far too quickly. Sadly, I didn't take good notes and don't have OG, IBU, etc values. | |
