Cheers gentlemen. So on Saturday I had a couple of those and then a bud asked me if I wanted to go to a local Oktoberfest/street fest kind of thing. Of course! Got home around 2am after that one and had a very slow Sunday.

Close. I used some melanoidin and skipped the Aromatic and biscuit that are listed in the original recipe. I used 4 ounces of CaraMunich instead of 6. The hops were an ounce of Hallertau and a half ounce of Hallertau Select, all at 60 minutes and about 27-28 IBUs. As I go forward, I am trying to simplify my recipes. In this case, the CM is probably out of style as would the other specialty malts. I did not have biscuit when I made this so I could have used some Aromatic or melanoidin or just skipped them both. The beer came out very nicely and seems to be better when it has the chance to lager a bit. Cheers.Ken is this recipe your Theresa's?

Never heard that. I always put Aromatic, Biscuit, Melanoidin and Victory in the same category. Grains that are seldom used and in small percentages. Melanoidin and Aromatic have different descriptions so I think they're different.BTW... that is a 20-ounce glass that I like to use for Helles or Oktoberfest... and maybe Marzen and Vienna. Between my beer and the Oktoberfest lager at this fest... whoo, I drank a lot of beer on Saturday.same thing I think.

I guess I should have said, "pretty much the same thing". I've used them in place of each other anyway.
on some websites they actually have "aromatic" in parens on the weyermann melanoidin. maybe that's misguided.
