Brew Batch #202 Broken to the Fist


FG 1.002+ 0.000 @65 only gives us about 3.8%, was looking for more 4.2-4.5% but the aroma and initial quaff seems quite pleasant. Being a huge Shōgun fan started this endeavor and I’m headed down the rabbit hole on this one. This is just regular flaked rice but I’ve already read up on using other styles like Jasmine rice for a little different touch. I’m afraid this may be a year rounder if I can keep the 830 yeast flowing and out next International lager entry at a homebrew comp near you. Domo arigato, Mr. 🤖-O.
