Analysis

Very active bubbling for 2-3 days then stopped rapidly thereafter

All bubbling had ceased by bottling day

Tasted good at bottling with mild taste of hops and cinnamon-like taste in background

Mature taste - very similar to Special Czech Pilsener with not as strong a hops flavour

Very clear light yellow to amber coloured beer

Very easy drinking
