Taste Notes

Ugh, I just can't bring myself to like this beer. I've never been a huge fan of most British beers I've tried, and this is the worst of the lot. The hop esters throw me off, reminding me of hefeweizen, another style I dislike. The dryness this yeast caused (1.007) combined with the dryness caused by the corn sugar doesn't leave any sweetness to complement the hops, pummeling you with bitterness.

Notes

Based on Innkeeper by Northern Brewer, but I couldn't get my hands on 160L British crystal. Aiming for "Pale Ale" water profile in Bru'n Water. More gypsum than I've ever used, so I'll be making sure it does not have an overly minerally taste.
