Notes

Had to CO2 carbonate as never reached 2.3 volumes.

Turned out well. A little darker in colour than expected, more of a brown ale. Taste was very good, aroma, taste and finish. A little high on the hop side for me but bitterness was good. Could taste the citrus but not overpowering.

I would make this again!
