Analysis

Followed advice on this one and just made beer with

canned extract only

Flavour lacked depth going into the bottle

- should have added something to jazz it up

Taste Test - Flavour still remained a bit shallow after settling

down in the bottle but not as much as expected

A mild but very drinkable stout
