Tasting Notes: Kind of on the fence with this beer. I really like the style and it will do very well in the summer. It’s certainly quaffable. I used too much lemon this time and i’m quite sure I got some pith in there as well. That contributes to the slight astrigency. I might be a little hard on myself for this one because it’s been well received. It still has the similar extract taste discussed in the IPA ratings. That’s something that will go away with time and energy.

Banana and lemon on the nose and they hit you like a punch in the face. The lemon is really preset in your mouth after you swallow some. The lemon however becomes more pronounced yet at the same time, more a part of the flavor as you continue to drink it. I think I know how i’ll make v3.0. 1 less lemon and do a full wort boil.

Very happy with the results. I would give it time to mellow out but it’s drinking so quickly and well that it probably won’t have time. Maybe I can hang on to two of them or something.
