Czech Pilsener

Ingredients
3kg can of Czech Pilsener from Peakhurst Brew Shop
Thanks Giff!

Calculations 
Original Gravity - 1041
Final Gravity - 1011
Approx. ABV - 4.5%

Brewing Notes
This was the easiest brew I've done as everything is in the one can, yep, malt, sugars hops, the lot! Just mixed it up and added the supplied yeast. I was a bit worried about the green foam but was assured by my mate Giff, who bought me the brew, that it was just due to the hops. Anyway it fermented out really well and it looks like the ABV is on track. High hopes for this one!

Tasting Notes
After 3 weeks in the bottle I cracked one of these little beauties and it's tops! Very little brew aftertaste and a beer that mates will like no matter what they drink. Also, the ABV is right on what was predicted (or feels that way anyway :)). As I said this was an easy process for a simple but tasty beer! Thanks again Giff!
