Notes

Brewed for the Ale Yeah! and Marlay house Brew and Mash Off sponsored by Terrapin Brewery. Won 3rd place of 17 contenders. First competition with a rather crude mash set-up. Phenomenal pine, grass and citrus notes. Have eliminated 50 minute bittering, as I think it is a bit too bitter for my taste.
