Notes

A pretty strait forward ale and a great beer to use to build a yeast cake to pitch a huge stout onto. This beer is traditionally cask conditioned but very clear so S-04 would also be a great choice for yeast.

Like some of my other recipes feel free to use my label here. You can use my brewery logo or add your own. I've posted both with and without.
