Looks good to me. The smell will be savage out the back of the LC between those hops and the bbq.

Looks good to me! Conan yeast? I think you would be playing with fire. All those times using it and all the hassle. BUT it could also turn out savage

Wow... this definitely qualifies for the "hop bomb" definition... wouldn't it be easier to just bottle some pellets and let people suck them instead? :P

Regretting already not being able to be there...
