Knuckle Head Ale - Wednesday, Aug. 27, 2014

I don't like this beer. I think it was too much late additions of the whole hops. I have gone through this before with a single flameout addition and I didn't like it, but no, did I pay attention to that beer? Nope, and this is what I get. It has a kind of slick, hop taste which IMO is too much. Will never do it again.The US-05 beer tasted better than the 1056, now that is weird. I already changed the recipe. I won't brew it unless I can use a quick turn around beer cause I want to brew lagers with the new recipe.
