Notes

After finding wild hops growing in my garden, I decided to test them on a very neutral base malt

I nevertheless went for a single decoction for mash out in order to give it a bit of character...

It's not a real SMASH as the bitterness was achieved by an old pack of east Kent Golding (knowing that there is a good chance the wild hops are genetically close)

good fermentation started after 4 hours

and lasted vigorous for 3 days.

transfer to secondary on day 7.

Bottled after 2 weeks
