    Pre-boil OG is 1.070, not adjusting for temp. Will repost when it reaches room temperature.

    upon further inspection OG is 1.080 after cooling, not the aforementioned 1.064.

    Final Gravity is 1.014 giving us an ABV of 9.2%. This results in an efficiency of 60% for grains, 83% attenuation for yeast.
