Notes

Note the malt is NZ Gladfield Lager malt, not UK.

Actual OG: 1045; final 1008 and primed with 5g maltodextrin/500ml bottle so actual ABV close to 5%. Fermentation lasted 4 days. Went over 17C a bit but no more than 20C.

Result: Not bad. A bit unbalanced (too hoppy) for such a light body but the flavour of the (superb local) malt still manages to come through. Did bottle 2 x 500ml before the dry hop and thought it tasted better than the main batch.
