Brett C Update


4/30/13
Six weeks since I brewed this beer

SG = 1.008

Aroma : Same as above.

Flavor: Very dry with a slight acidity. Pleasant tartness due to some acidity. Citrus fruit (pineapple) coming thru. Some clove.  Brett funkiness is there, probably meaning that the brett C wasn't acting as a primary fermenter. Definitely has rye crispness, probably too much although I'll see what its like when its carbed. Time to keg this.

When I make this again, I probably will use wheat instead of rye. Other than the rye, this beer has a delicate flavor profile and this much rye is overpowering. Could use some aroma hops as well to balance it out.
