Ah yeah! FG 1.006+0.001@ 53F with a little Mother Nature cold crash to give us 4.6% in the keg. BE was ok on this one but what I was really going after is a good replicate of the original that had extract addition. It's on gas and we'll see how well the clove/banana balance is soon enough. Plan to use this monster WLP300 pitch for my first weizenbock.

Brew Batch #176 Taking A Dunkels
And as the burners begin to warm back up after a slow brewing year (work related), we knock this batch out again for 2 reasons. Last time, we sought to make a wheat beer but the LME was darker than expected hence the Dunkel labeling. However, that same beer medaled and there are 2 things I'm a whore over right now, homebrewing medals from each contiguous state and Untappd badges. So, I am trying to replicate that medal winner in its all-grain form. OG was low 1.040+0.000 @70F so I'm unhappy with that on a 2 hour mash. But we'll see what the yeast does. I'll also be harvesting this bed for my first weizenbock attempt. Stay tuned.

Brew Batch #175 Reinke's Revenge 2022 CoVid Edition (cont'd) Gamma variant
Man, did that CBB yeast chew it up! FG 1.030-0.001 @54 makes this batch of Reinke's toe the line at 12.2%. Kegged on a 2.5" spiral of Brazlian Amburana today for at least 10 days, then after apple pie additions we should have a great variant that will overcome droves just like the original virus did.
