Brew Day December 11, 2008

This is a cross between an English bitter and English IPA. I like the way this tastes. Hoppy, but not too much alcohol. Besides, using 22 lbs. of 2-row stretches my inventory.

This brew is now in kegs. The bitterness is still quite evident, but it will mellow out in couple of weeks. Since I have 2 kegs, I tap one and put the other one away to age.
