ABCD ESB
Extra Special/Strong Bitter (English Pale Ale) • All Grain • 5 gal
Beer came out a little thin due to lower mash temp, but there's enough body to make it worthwhile. Balance leans a tad toward the malty side for a bitter. Next time I'll likely leave out the Vienna, going all Marris Otter for the base, and I'll mash closer to 154 or so. Overall, I'm quite pleased for my first all-grain attempt.
