Notes

My efficiency has been a little low, probably closer to 65%, so i'd suggest cutting down on the grain bill slightly. We ended up with an OG of 1.045 and FG of 1.010. Haven't had a chance to try one yet, everything went well on brew day, we're expecting this one to be an easy drinking summer beer.
