Batch 51 vienna tasting notes

Brewed 10/12/13

Pours nice blonde golden, a little haze, smallish tan head that stays for a while.

Smells vanilla malt, slight fruit.

Mouth feel, pleasant crisp feel, a little cling but carbonation cleans it right up.

Flavor, hops start to come out, cutting through vanilla maltiness.  Hops are a little grassy, but pleasant spiciness overall.

Finish hop spice and hop bitterness, too much bitterness.

Overall impression, nice beer, sweet pleasant beverage.  Could reduce bitterness, but northdown is nice flavor.  Try without oats, add 1 oz Munich.
