Fox Place Brew 80: Lager

A "yeast-starter" was produced from the tailings of the previous lager brewed at The Fox and was pitched into brew 80.  Despite the weather having turned cool last week, this lager strain was again a steady performer.  A graphical representation of the course of the fermentation is shown below.


The original and final density readings of this brew were 1039 and 1007 g/L, respectively.  These reading correspond to an alcohol concentration in brew 80 of approximately 5.1 % (v/v), or 1.7 standard drinks per schooner.

not one of your mid strengths Pinko, so how have they turned out? Might have to switch to the keg system as not alot of storage space for the homebrew at the new place
