Notes

Created with BeerSmith

You may notice from the Recipe that two different strains of yeast were used in this recipe, I split this batch into 2 - 5 gallons primaries. Pitched Wyeast 3522 on one batch and 1450 on the other batch and fermented at 63 degrees.

Transferred the 1450 batch to secondary and added sweet orange peel and 1oz. Amarillo.  Trying my best to recreate Tyrennena's Scurvy.

Transferred the 3522 batch and dry hopped with 1oz. Amarillo.

Both of these beers are by far one of my best, but the batch pitched with the Belgian Ardennes 3522 strain was amazing.  I will re-brew this again as a 10-gallon batch very soon!
