Notes

I brewed this with ingredients from my lhbs and something went wrong with the mash I only got 47.5 effeciency

Kegged after 2 months, the gravity was 1.005. Tasted strongly of alcohol at about 9.5% so I keg hopped it with an oz of simcoe and an oz of Amarillo. It gave it a nice subtle flavor and also took the alcohol bite away
