Notes

Light, refreshing STB (Standard Table Bitter). The 10 min hop stand at the end of the boil will give this beer a little aroma lift, making this beer a little hoppy as well having a good malt backbone. The First Gold hop additions can also be substituted with Bramling Cross. As easy to brew than it is to drink!
