Looks good. I've never tried Galena, but the rest is familiar (and some of the very best). :drink:

The Galena was a donation from my Local Micro brewery. The Fownes Brewing Company. Top lads. It's a really clean bittering hop. Second brew I have done with it.

Also it is worth noting I only do a 12l boil and top up to 23litres. Hop weights are adjusted in Brewers friend accordingly. :-)

Bottled tonight. 2 x 5 litre Easy Kegs and 16 x 500ml bottles. Bin sample tasted great!
