Notes (Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)

First brew by myself with no help. The only difficult part was handling the wort chiller. I also forgot to heat up the sparge water during the mash in time, so the mash was a bit longer than 45 minutes. Lastly, I had to boil the water with priming sugar twice due to a cooling misshap where ice water got into the priming sugar water vessel (not sure if I lost any sugar in the process). 1 week primary 2 week secondary (with dry hop at 5 days)
