This is obviously one of your personal favourites! 

Re: 30/12/2010 - Thrappledouser
Partly that, and partly I'm just a stubborn git who'll keep trying till I get it right! Plus I haven't had a lot of time for brewing over the past while so when I put a brew on I like to be sure it'll be something I'll enjoy.

Hi,
Looks good! How do you like the pilgrim hops & where did you get them from?
Regards
Guy

I got them from the Thrifty Shopper back in the summer - just bought 50g - this is the first I've used them. I'll let you know how they taste.

Thanks for your replies...

Looking forward to hearing how the brew turns out

Bottled this on Thursday night and had a taster last night. Still a bit green, but it's a great brew. The pilgrim hops provide a lovely spicy bitterness - I'll definitely be using them again.
