| Notes: | Our first go at making a lager, so why not lean into it with a proper Oktoberfest banger?! Didn't quite make October, but it's worth waiting for! Novalager in theory should ferment and flocculate fairly quickly, but that wasn't the case here - it took a couple of months to give up and drop out of suspension. But hey, lager's gonna lager, so patience... Never used Herkules before, it's providing a lovely gentle lager herbiness and balanced bitterness over the delicately sweet malt base. Dangerously drinkable! |
