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

This is a really good beer. Every brewer should try it especially if you live west of the Rockies. Just hoppy enough but not too hoppy, with other notes that the consumer can detect. After two, you will be asking for "any girl who wants you!!!!." {To bad no one does.} So .....You will have another!! Brew-on my friend. And remember....Its as big as an Anaconda!!
