Notes

This was OK. Color was a bit dark for my liking. I would definitely lighten it up in the future. I think hops, for our goal being a LIGHTLY hopped, easy drinking pale ale, were on the money. I may increase these 5-10% in a future brew just to help them be a bit more noticeable. Not an extraordinary recipe, but solid.
