I did the tour a couple of years ago, and the brewer gave us a rough idea of what was in it. But i over indulged on the beer, and forgot what he said. On another note, I tried the run aged version at the brewery, it was amazing!

Well, Glass Hammer has been in the FV for 3 days now, and has dropped down to 1008! Love wet yeast!

I dropped the temp down from 22c to 18c, and tomorrow I will dry hop, then crash cool in a few days.
The yeast ended up giving 86%, so now my abv is 6.8%,rather than 6%

Well ve not updated my brewing logs for a while, mainly due to brewing two lagers and tying up two fridges.
