Product VI

The black IPA ready for bottling along with its weak second mash cousin. And tasty it is too, although the weak guy is more bitter and hoppy than the black, which makes sense - it's weaker because there's less malt in it and because there's less malt, there's less sweetness to balance the bitterness of the hops. I'll need to remember that and maybe scale back the hops for the wee ones. But drinkable. Hopefully it'll mellow a little as it conditions in the bottle.
