0	Target OG 1.055; testing a bit higher but not really mixed. Should follow up tomorrow. this is a test of the emergency broadcast system
20	Bottling day; gold caps. Surprisingly low FG (est. 1.017, great attenuation! - est ABV 5.48%). Tasted great even now. No green flavors, interesting.
53	One of my best! Very positive response from all (even wife). Well balanced, clean, dunkle with great style. Must be repeated.

I am disrespectful to dirt!
