WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

Recipe from Fermentation Solutions

Original recipe calls for partial boil, but used a full boil ~6 gallons.

Brew Notes:
-maybe a tad more carbonation
-nice fruity nose (banana, clove?, funk)
-sweet, lingering, yeasty
-a tad darker than the style calls for (maybe due to extract method as opposed to all grain)
