Scott's Lite

Specifics

Style:

Category:	Light Hybrid Beer
Number:	06C

A clean, crisp, delicately balanced beer usually with very subtle fruit flavors and aromas. Subdued maltiness throughout leads to a pleasantly refreshing tang in the finish. To the untrained taster easily mistaken for a light lager, a somewhat subtle pilsner, or perhaps a blonde ale.

Commercial Examples: Available in Cologne only: PJ Früh, Hellers, Malzmühle, Paeffgen, Sion, Peters, Dom; import versions available in parts of North America: Reissdorf, Gaffel; Non-German versions: Eisenbahn Dourada, Goose Island Summertime, Alaska Summer Ale, Harpoon Summer Beer, New Holland Lucid, Saint Arnold Fancy Lawnmower, Capitol City Capitol Kölsch, Shiner Kölsch.

Method:

All Grain

Mash at 147 for 75 mins

Add alpha amalyze enzyme to secondary to further dry out the beer

1-23-1 - After racking these beers over to a keg and pressurizing them overnight I woke up to the strong smell of spilled beer. One of the disconnects had cracked and the entire keg dispensed out on the floor (and a lot in the freezer underneath).

Comments

Fermented with Kolsch yeast at 65 which turned out to be way too fruity for this beer. I did re-pitch the yeast into an IPA which I fermented under 60.
