Notes

this is the author I am sure hiss variant is better and all credit goes to him thanks for an awesome beer
https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/893691/microsmosas

this is distantly inspired by what ingredients I had lying around.

Was very happy with how this turned out half batch BRY-97 higher temp 20 from mem was very nice.

Nottingham done at 15 degrees was the winner though.

both tasted nice. Nottingham was just that bit smoother. I'd say it was a sessionable APA.
