## Notes

Dry-hopped on 2022-06-13.

Bottled on 2022-06-18.

Opened the first bottle on 2022-06-26. Good head already. Color is spot on, very
red. Very drinkable, the acidity from the acidulated malt comes through nicely.
Maybe could have done with a little less? I would try 100-150g next time instead
of 200g.

Hops flavor is a little strong (spicy? Clearly from the Wiliammette) for my
taste, but it's still very young and it will probably attenuate. Might be worth
replacing it from another variety though.
