I only have gypsum and CaCl to work with, so I couldn't mess with carbonate level etc for English water profiles. Was more or less going for "London" but not sure that is even appropriate for this style.

Notes

Have a bunch of pale chocolate laying around and exactly 125g of regular chocolate, so I thought I'd try combining them here.

I want this to be a bit sweet and not too roasty. Not sure how it will turn out.

Soaked 2 vanilla beans and 60g cacao nibs in 130ml of Maker's Mark for 14 days, pour through coffee filter into secondary 7 days before bottling
