German Blonde


Blonde Ale

3/25/13

Recipe kit from Northern Brewer

OG: 1.038 with no correction from temperature

FG: 1.006

ABV: 4.3%

Primary: Fermentation took longer so gave it an extra four days.

Secondary: 4/05/13

Bottled: 4/17/13

Notes:
Bubbles seemed to settle down finally so racked after an extra four days.
Taste test during secondary racking: very fruity, almost apricot like.  Very excited to taste during bottling.
Sweetness settled down when bottled.  Seems like a sweeter pale ale.
Turned into cream ale but after four weeks in the bottle the hops flavor started to take over.
Use recipe for an idea to make a cascade hopped summer beer. but add more hops.
