BJCP 2021 Style 8B Schwarzbier
At the time I had very little experience of brewing lager, so the recipe was inspired from research around the style and using up ingredients that I had stock of. I chose the Schwarzbier style as I do prefer darker lagers because of the stronger flavours.
Originally brewed to a 22L batch size using distilled water as a base
