Notes

Inspired by Moose Drool clone from Clone Brews book - Big Sky Brewing Company - page 224
____________
First impression:
This did not turn out good. The back end is way to bitter and not balanced and some really strong coffee and roast tastes that don't sit well with me. Considering dumping it.
