Notes

The magnum hops I grew up the side of my house. Of the 5 types of hops I grow, this one is the biggest beast of them all, by a considerable margin.
The only thing is that the strength of it is debatable, but it has a lovely clean bitterness that lets the other hops through with their flavour.
I’m adding this to my regular repertoire as it is really pleasant to drink.
