Hi Reaper,

I'll watch this one with interest - the two I've brewed from you have have been stunning so far

Just got the grogans done BH weekend weekend and is crash cooling at the moment.

Smells lubly!

looks good Reaper,

Those Susan hops look quite good... It'll be interesting to see what comes through with that grain bill!

It will be interesting to see how hoppy it is, with that much 9.8%!

I'm interested to know if these super aroma hops are all they're cracked up to be - have you sampled yet? .

I won't tell Susan

Are they from http://www.charlesfaram.co.uk/Variety.asp#UK%20HEDGEROW? They do look good, but personally I think that the Hilary variety look even better - any chance you'll be getting some of those in? Even better: any chance you can point me in the direction of someone who can sell me a rhizome?
