Hi BF,

It went very well, turned into a bit of a brew party, several friends turned up on spec, and my mate who i brew with bought up one of his kegs , and once finished it was down to the pub for a couple at lastorders :drink: :drink: :drunk: :drunk:
Foolishly and rather drunk might i add, i forgot to take an og ready, but the brew it self was nice and dark, with a chocolatey caramel flavour, not many photos this time round but we did video the events, just need to edit it :)

quality vid there bri, I've always thought AG looked really hard,costly and complicated until watching that video to be honest. i think I'll be brewing a few more kits though and maybe start AG next year. I would need to learn the tastes of different grains and hops right enough.
cheers man :
