Danube Picnic

This tasty beer really hit it off last time. This is an easy brew and it is so light and savory. The water was provided by Black and Veatch. I wanted to brew this early, as it will be served in June and I wanted to give it 8 weeks time to lager and finish. I mashed it at 152 degrees and started the boil, bagging up the hops. I then added 1oz of Hallertau at the 60 min mark of the boil and again at 15 minutes.

A now fantastic recipe I can rely on. This is a beer I can share with a lot of people. It turns out I will be sharing this beer with a lot of people. I have been selected to brew a few beers for an upcoming water treatment event. I wanted to use a solid beer recipe to make this magic happen. I am tweaking this recipe with some extra 2-Row grain. I am splitting up the amount of Maris Otter, and freshly milling the grain for the mash. The free water comes from a local water treatment plant. It’s always nice to get some free stuff. I wanted to knock this out of the park and use some great ingredients from Windsor Homebrew Supply. Starting out with basically RO water, I will have to add some calcium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate to hit the flavor profile and overall character. I will be using Golding Hops(60 mins) and Cascade(10 mins).
