Think I might just have time for a wee Landlord. If I start this Tuesday it should be ready.

I came back to the homeland for the weekend to see the folks and my dad revealed that he had two of my bitters still out in the garage. They must've been in the bottle three months. The bitterness seemed to improve but it completely lost it's head. I was expecting the complete opposite!

Lapped out of the TTL and went for a Taddy Porter instead. Bubbling away like a legend in my new stainless steel fermenter.
