Discussion
Missed OG and finished a little dry

Missed the OG by a few points but also fermented out a bit further than expected leaving it a bit dry. Entered in a peer-judged club competition as a Porter and ranked =3rd. As our club comp doesn't have "Robust Porter" as a class, judges have suggested it will perform better in comp as a Dry Stout.
