New to brewing and I picked this recipe randomly. A friend with experience brewing helped me out. The batch turned out absolutely fantastic. The flavor is wonderful. Everybody that has tried it has liked it. I don't think its just because they're trying to make me feel better. I can't say that I really followed the fermentation process very closely. I basically let it sit for a month and a week before we bottled it. I gave some bottles to my friend and he called back asking for the recipe.
