That US-05 seems to be a real slow-coach. Probably due to all those burgers it eats :)

Just bottled, after dry hopping both FV's, double the amount of hops in the Burton Ale yeast FV in comparrison to the US-05 FV.

Tastes from both FV couldn't be more different, the US-05 is bitter and astringent with loads of hop flavours...
Whereas the Burton Ale Yeast has a rounded drinkable feel to it...
Interesting stuff :)

Primed with 60g of Household sugar and a teaspoon of slurry mixed in well.
Sanitised with Starsan again, again rinsing half the bottles with the other half drip dry only.
