quite alot of finishing hops cant taste any spices (other than saaz) but pick up some esters
racked 10L into a cube and considering...
thanks for that sounds tasty but could u maybe describe it in a commercial beer, etc, highttale ale, bishops finger, fullers, ....
would be a great help to give me more of an insight

IBU 25-28
