Notes

12g priming for 1 gal mini keg
Experimental 1 gallon smash, did not have my hydrometer with me so did not take OG and FG, but who cares, if it tastes good.

Pre kegging notes:
Quite dry and bitter, but otherwise reasonable flavour. Nice malty, possibly sweet flavour - potential for a very nice dry bitter!
