Discussion
Bottled this weekend - great aroma & flavor

I bottled from my secondary after 2 weeks of secondary with 1 week of Dry Hopping the Tettnanger. The aroma was awesome and the flavor was quite good as well. I can hardly wait for the next 2 weeks to go by so I can check that flavor after it carbonates a little. More to come...
