This turned out really good. I fermented hot (72F) to produce a decent amount of esters, but I pitched a ton of yeast, so I think they're pretty in-check. This is a to-style recipe, but if I could change one thing next time for my personal taste, I'd probably dry hop or add another ounce of EKG @ 0 minutes. The Warminster malt & Special Roast led to a very bready maltiness, which I would not change at all. I also kind of dislike too much caramel malt, so 2 ounces was perfect.
