I tried this on Saturday at the case swap and i can vouch for this being a top drop. It was the first beer i tried for the day so i wasn't pissed yet :icon_cheers:

It looks like a nice recipe too me.
The pale malts at 68 degrees would have given it plenty of body.
Nice to hear it turned out great.
