Notes

3/25/11 - 1.019. 1.25 oz muddled mint leaves, 6 oz of baker's chocolate racked into secondary fermentor. Tastes real good, slight off taste that lingers, otherwise real good.

3/28/11 - 1.018 - Real strong mint flavor, hopefully the carbonation and cold serving temp will dull the mint out a little. Want to bottle ASAP so the mint doesn't grow anymore. Wish I could get some more chocolate and less mint. I do love mint, but I don't know if others will.
