Tasted on 5/20/2016 by BackAlleyBrewing

Notes:

The first sip tasted pretty good, but the next two had some of the hops from the bottom of the fermenter and they were pretty astringent.

Notes:

This was mostly trub blow off. It tasted pretty good but a bitter finish because of concentration of hops. gravity was 1.022
