Notes

Recipe Notes:
Used 1 can of BrewDemon Brew Enhancement Sugar (BES), but that isn't in the database, so I used
corn syrup above as an approximate fill-in for AVB estimation.

Batch Notes:

It was a basic recipe, came with the can of HME and BES.  Added a pound of extra light DME for more body and flavor, and to make it a bit maltier.

Update: 2013/06/12
Bottled this tonight, 3 days later than expected.  Initial taste was mild, with a sweet, malty note but not extreme.  It does have a heavy alcohol taste to it, most likely from the BES.  Will need to add 4 weeks to the conditioning schedule for this one.  It started off quite cloudy.  The last couple of bottles were pretty clear, as was the sample, which I draw after the bottling is complete.
