Notes

-Probably won't need starter, or just small starter.
-no caramel colorant (pointless SRM)
-Adjust bitterness for received AAU of hops
-Ferment at 63F, ramp towards end to 68F. Crash Cool once fermentation is complete, don't let it clean up (Maybe, Fullers ferm technique)
-See if I can find Mild Malt!!
-Could Sub Lyle's golden syrup for Invert #1 (8 srm?)
