Notes

we added 2 oz of plum extract; probably could have done with just one. It seems to have masked some of the clove ester off the yeast.

6 - 8 cinnamon sticks.

fermentation started around 68 degrees; two secondaries - one we added puree and kept a small bit of yeast followed by another yeast-free secondary (I guess technically a tertiary) with added cinnamon and plum extract. Temp finished about 60 degrees.
