Tasting Notes

At kegging, Tucker Eric and Esther tasted it. We found that it was a bit floral, light, mild bitterness for an IPA (more of a pale ale's bitterness) and a hint of sour.

After being carbonated and chilled, the sourness didn't stand out anymore. The cardamon really stands out amazingly and it's very tasty.

Bottling

I'm not sure what we'll do with all of them but I bottled a dozen bottles of this. I took 2 - one as a helper and 1 as a bottler. One is for James who helped me bottle. Obviously 2 for ryan as brewmaster, I don't remember who else helped. They're the unlabelled bottles in the secret beer fridge, in the sixpacks. The labelled ones are obviously what they are. - eric
