Notes
This beer finished at the lowest gravity I've ever gotten, so I'm happy about that. It tasted pretty good at bottling, so we'll see how it is in another month or so. The hibiscus unfortunately I didn't notice much when I tasted at bottling. Boil volume is approximate - I don't remember that exactly.
