Anyway recipe is to try and be like the Co-op bottle conditioned goldminer beer which is a really nice drink. I couldnt find anyone that had tried a clone so i just made mine up. The brewer said in an article somewhere that it was just optic with a pinch of crystal single hopped with first gold... Decided to add a bit of munich to it too...
