Notes

Tropicalia style clone. Recipe was from a board in a local brew supply shop, not far from the Creature Comforts brewery. Clerk said the recipe was written by the brewmaster himself.

This came out delicious and one of my favorites I have made so far. Very close to the original, but better, because I brewed it!
