Other:
- Over sparged this batch. It was my first all grain attempt. A little bitter and astringent but would have been very close to Alaskan Amber if the sparging had been stopped earlier.
- This is actually mellowing out a little. The bitterness has gone and is being replaced by a slightly sweet malty note. Very close to Alaskan Amber now!
