Looks delicious. What yeast did you use?

Yeah, which one and how did it work? Personal favorite so far has been 830, tried 833 and 860, both OK but 830 was better...They say really good things about the Mexican Lager yeast (940) as a general use one, too.
BTW, a process/technique for you to attempt next time: When done fermenting and D-rest (60 deg or so, whatever you are at), purge a keg with co2 and transfer into that. Now do your cold steps in the keg (not trying to carbonate it yet) and if you want it even clearer, add gelatin/finings after its cold. I want to let it settle a few days like that first and then hit the gas to purge that yeast out of the bottom (without moving it to disturb it). Now carb it up or lager it.
This keeps you from ingesting O2 thru the airlock during the chilling phase in the fermenter (I am assuming that you aren't so advanced as to have it in a conical that can take pressure and you have CO2 hooked up at low PSI so oxygen can never get in there). On darker ales, this won't be real noticable, but it might on any lighter, delicate lagers. Sealed kegs really are the perfect vessel for beer making.
