Notes

OG and FG better than expected - Finished at 5.6% after 3 days. Thank you 'Nottingham'.
Tasted great from bottling as a mild should.
Very dark and smooth. Low bitterness and only hint of roast.
Dark fruit notes but just a great refreshing drink. We now drink in pint glasses as half pint tulips went too fast!
Feedback from samples at work is v good, such as 'Wow, this is my new favourite beer'
