Well done Rob and team. This is a superb beer that is probably one of the best I have made (118 to date, about half in a 5 gallon Braumeister). The og came out at a spot on 10555 with a final gravity of 1014 giving a very respectful abv of 5.5% and 74% attenuation. After only 22 days conditioning in the bottle I had my first tasting last night and boy was it good. Lovely golden colour with good clarity. It felt so good in the mouth with pleasant tones of malt and hops coming through and lingering. So good. Will be coming back again for this one.

This is a lovely drink. I thought it might have a bit more body but I will be ordering this again. I actually used Lallemand Dried Voss instead of the provided yeast and it worked a treat – fermented at 30c and it was finished in 3 days.

Amazing beer-very impressed, tried the first one after 12 days in the bottle- i have nearly finished it all,very drinkable.
5 stars.
