    FG was 1.018 , a strong licorice , some mellowing and melding of the flavors and this will be really fantastic, added espresso to 2.5 gallons at bottling , 2 oz cold steeped in 8 oz of water .

    Ten days in bottle. Chocolate notes mellowed licorice. Really great this young Needs more time to carbonate. Extremely happy. Will pop one with espresso in a day or two
