Notes

10/22/2019 - Brew Day. Decided to use up the last of my Mandarina Bavaria hops at flameout on this batch to add a little hop flavor and aroma. Chilled to 70 degrees and left by the furnace to ferment a little warmer.
10/24/2019 - Didn't see any activity after a couple days, so I decided to pitched some saved Hornidal Kveik yeast and bring the fermenter upstairs to ferment a little warmer. Hopefully some of the Brett character comes through with time. I'm still planning on saving the yeast cake and will note the change of adding the HK yeast.
1/1/2020 - SG=1.008 - Transferred onto 2oz of vodka-soaked hibiscus. Not much funk character, but the flavor is nice. Hopefully it ages well and some additional Bret notes come out.
