Notes

15gm of pearl hop pellets added to the 5 gallon plastic keg. 100gm of golden syrup as a primer.
Flavour has a malt roundness with a long not overly bitter finish. Cleared excellently after a cold crash for 2 days. Colour darker than I had planned - I was looking for a deep golden brown, this is proper brown colour, too dark
