Notes

Nice Hoppy IPA for Xmas.

I will re-use the grains for a 25L low alcohol version. Half the hops for the lower volume. Add a handful of roasted Barley to give it some colour. Ive done this on the last few brews and have been getting a 1.1% beer which has been very nice and easy to drink. I little bit wishy washy (thin) but very refreshing to drink in a day when the alcohol isn't wanted.
