Notes

Brew Day:

Hit 1.048

Lag Phase took a long time due to lack of yeast starter, but is now fermenting quite well.

Finished @ 1.015, probably due to underpitching and extended lag phase. Tastes crisp and clean, hop profile very green and grapefruity. Nose is stunning; strong notes of papaya , orange and sugar-coated lemons.
