Nice Work Andrew!
I've been offline for awhile so I missed this in realtime...
Great feeling to keg up a cracker and think "I made this!"
Funnily i've just done a kit that i thought i'd make taste better by adding a 90gram bag of amerillo in the last twenty minutes of boil (hopburst). They were very old hops. I now have a beer that tastes like um... weeds!!
Cheers

ok... well there is about 2 pints of this left!
An observation
1. I gelatined this while crash chilling (in a cube), i thought it had cleared OK....BUT
2. The more i pour from the keg, the clearer the beer is becoming. Do you think this is because it is also 'cold conditioning' and clearing itself as tim goes on (about 2 weeks its been in there) or is there another reason for this??
3. Still tastes great
Amber ale brewing next week
cant wait!
Happy brewing!

That's the spirit, this research is thirsty work, eh?!
Probably is CCing that's helping to clear it up, not that I'm a kegger though. Any chill haze though?
Good luck with the amber!
