Shouldn't the boil size be bigger than the batch size or do you top up with water?

looks pretty tasty, I'd throw some goldings/styrian goldings in there dry as well, but that's my personal preference.

Yeah i top up, i use the high gravity boil method, I normally get 13.5 litres of 1.070 wort and top to 19 making a beer around 4.8 ish.

Is it true that styrian goldings are basically fuggles?

Agreed but couldn't work out what it really was, beersmith doesn't have that many options when it comes the English beers and could squeeze it into a style (happy to be corrected)!!

I think I will run with it but not tomorrow, too damn hot for brewing!!

Recipe looks tasty and easy drinking.

Styrian goldings are a variant of fuggles grown in Slovenia. Region and evolution make them taste different.
