Notes

FG taken at bottling was 1.005 (calibated for warm temp of 23.5, ambient temp 30 at least.). Attentuation of 89% according to the abv calculator. Much higher than expected. Don't know why, ferm temps were constant for 16 days. Perhaps too much yeast, so slight over-attenuation.
Bottled via secondary with a racking cane.
At two weeks (conditioning) hops are still quite forward. Colour is not as much red, as brown. Taste is clean with some malt complexity, some bread. Not much in the way of esters, which I think is in keeping with the style.
Improvements for next time. Fuggles hops, caraamber and/or carared, perhaps lose the chocolate malt. The pilsner and pale ale malt worked well in keeping it quite a clean and light tasting. Keep Nottingham yeast.
