Notes
22.5 b OG 1.005 FG I didn't believe the FG 95% attenuation, Gotta love theis US-56 (US-05)
This is an awesome IIPA hat was modeled after a Pliney the Elder Clone in the 150 clones BYO magazine. Changes were hop substitutions due to availability and my corn sugar bag was 2 pounds heavy ;-) This is a keeper.
