No-Coconut Coconut Golden Ale (HBC-472 single-hop pale ale)

This beer is my take on Eddie Would Go, a Coconut Golden Ale that I tasted in 2018 at the Red Cervecera in Lima.  The beer had no actual coconut, and all the coconut notes were contributed by the hops.

For this one, I used the recipe for Two J's and a G, the British Golden Ale that I co-brewed with my buddies Jim and Gordon, as the base.

4 oz Weyermann Munich malt (5°-7° L)
3 lbs Viking 2-Row Xtra Pale malt (1.7° - 1.9° L)
6 lbs Maris Otter malt (3° - 4° L)
½ oz. HBC 472 hop pellets (8.7% AA) , @ 60 mins
1 oz. HBC 472 hop pellets (8.7% AA) , @ 10 mins
1 oz. HBC 472 hop pellets (8.7% AA) , @ 0 mins
1 tablet Whirfloc @ 30 mins
1 vial White Labs WPL001 yeast

Yeast pitching temp.: 81° F
Strike temp.: 165° F
Mash: 151° F for 45 mins

Pre-boil volume 6.75 gals.
End of boil volume: 5.5 gals
Volume in fermenter: 4.25 gals

OG: 1.041
FG: 1.008
Est. ABV: 4.3%

Fermentation notes:  22 days, 71-74° F

Tasting notes upon kegging: Nice light coconut flavor, which I hope might be more pronounced when the beer is chilled, in a light, clean ale.  Maybe next time bump up the final hop addition a tad.
