Patersbier – Belgian Single

My second Euroclash beer for 2025, brew went roughly to plan – slightly higher OG than I’d aimed for.

26A Belgian Single

Transferred to keg for carbonation, plus 1x 750ml shake carb, and 3x 750ml sugar dropped and bottle conditioned.

Taste test – very fresh and strong aroma, some banana notes, decent hop presence – it has promise..

Fermentation notes

ferment @ 18C for 48hours, raise 1C every 24hours to max 24C
