Floyd BrewBlog > BrewBlogs > HMS Victory ESB - All Grain [Extra Special/Strong Bitter (English Pale Ale)]

Lost about a gallon about 1/2 through the mash when a hose popped off. I lost a bit of efficiency so my O.G. was low. But this time it will still be drinkable and not relegated to being cooking beer.
