Nice work, Gene.

Thank you I know it's not the best beer and it will get better but it is giving me the feeling of accomplishment that I needed to continue

This one tastes great, now with a few adjustments it will be tip top

Last evening I help a blind taste test with 4 beers. My non lodo natch, my 1st lodo batch, coors banquet, and wiehenstaphaner original premium.

I had 10 people over for the test. 4 friends and 2 of their wives, and another 2 couples (friends of friends) so I had a mix of avid beer drinkers, and a couple folks who are not beer drinkers per say.

Of the 4 beers this was the tallied votes on 3 different categories (aroma, head/foam, taste)

Aroma/ head&foam / taste
Non lodo=0/1/0
Lodo=5/8/5
Coors banquet=1/0/3
Wiehenstaphaner original premium=4/1/2

The non lodo and lodo batches where the same recipe, and mash schedule, boil, etc....

They all said the lighter taste of the LODO was preferred over the wiehenstaphaner, my perception of their responses leads me to believe they are just more accustomed to the lighter flavor of American beer.
