That's a nice-looking beer, JKOR. Very nice, indeed. Nice clarity already, nice color, etc. I would say you're in mid-season form!! Nice work.

Thanks, Ken.  I'm really enjoying it.  The first two beers from the new "brewery" have really turned out nicely.  I'm excited to be brewing again!

Flavor-wise, the backbone is there.  It didn't finish as dry as the commercial and had too much melanoidin character and caramel sweetness.  Probably swap out the munich for vienna or do a 50/50.  Back off on the caramunich to 2 oz and make about 10% grist flaked corn.

152F would be a bit warm for the mash, in my brewery, to make a dry lager.

You're missing out.  Great refreshing warm weather beer.  It's my one of my summer go-tos.

 

 

how did they get the beer into the glass without opening the bottle???

Yes, definitely a factor to consider.

Yes, the clarity is good.  I was happy with that aspect.  It wasn't as clear as the commercial (obviously) but really not bad.  A couple weeks in the fridge will leave it pretty clear I'd imagine.

 

Commercial, left.  HB, right.
