4 of 5

I think the recipe is really good. I have not had the original but borrowed hard from Fullers brew house notes then tweaked it smooth it out a touch and darken it up a tad. I think the water profile could use some work as the taste is a tad thin but that does seem to be filling out more with time. I was worried about the lower attenuation but think if it attenuated any more the beer wouldn't have enough flavor and the 5.5% ABV is appreciated. I think this could be a full 5 star recipe with the right water profile.
