Notes

7.25.16 - I just wanted to give an update for anyone who's considering this recipe. This beer was initially terrible. The Corriander completely overwhelmed the beer and tasted awful. Almost a year later it is finally balanced and very delicious. If you don't plan on waiting a year after you brew this I would cut down the spices by 3/4.
