Post boil volume 6.5 26  
Going into fermentor 6.5 26  
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

Racked into secondary after two weeks. Taste notes: Initial sweetness has left, leaving a toasty and malty full bodied wort with a lingering bitterness that hits shortly after the initial malt flavors with a hint Of Old English ale. Fat Tire might have just met its match.

A Perfect Old Ale Recipe if 11 Lb total extract was used and Wyeast 1028 Nottingham Yeast were added. Adjust Hops to get 60 Ibu's.
