Campfire Brown Ale Brew Session

Brew Session Info

(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)

Mash temp was spot on and solid, smooth brew day, the ground water is warming up so It took a while to chill to pitching temp. I'm close to a half gallon heavy on volume and just a bit low 1.055 on O.G. Took Gravity reading today, 6/17/19 , it's around 1.016 I'll bottle in a few days. Ended up with 59 bottles of nice brown ale, uncarbed it's smooth and slightly smoky with a rich flavor of chocolate and roasted grain. Looking forward to tasting when it's carbonated.
