Notes

The original recipe calls for a different amount on the hops.

1.5 oz Fuggles (reducing this to 0.5 oz)

Also, the original is somewhat loose on timings, so aiming to adjust the timing during boil as...
add LME and DME and bring to boil
(60min) boil start
(45min) add Kent Goldings hops
( 2min) add Honey
( 1min) add Fuggles hops
( 0min) flame out - allow 3min to pasteurize before cooling wort
continue with cooling wort as normal
