adding bottled 750ml with carbonation drops.
27 x 750ml

Trial bottle 21 Jan 2018
Great carbonation - quickly goes flat, needs to lager. nice straw to golden colour
clarity good - despites: youth, no isinglass, not racking off to a secondary
A little yeasty on the nose
Taste very clean. slight bitter initial taste, little aftertaste. will wait a few weeks
