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.

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.
