Notes

Third variation on a classic English style I got to enjoy while stationed over there. Still hunting for the right flavors although the misses have been enjoyable for their own merits. Changes in this iteration are primarily in water chemistry. Boosting the gypsum levels higher than I do for other malt forward beers although staying short of the historical "Burton" water.
