Do you remember sending me this?
Are you familiar with this beer... as in... do you drink it often? I ask because it was this beer that told me that my helles was lacking. The reason was the dry finish that they got in the beer but the body, mouthfeel, etc. was perfect as well. Malty lager, dry finish. The beer had that in a very distinct way. Now that you're a pro brewer do you have any idea how they did that? This thread is open to everyone, of course, but I wanted to ask Lefty because he sent the beer to me and may be familiar with it. I thought the trick might be water composition but I don't really think so. I'm wondering if it could be a crazy long mash, step mash schedule or even a smidge of sugar in the wort to bring the final gravity down. Whatever it is, it's elusive and I want it.
