I brewed this a month or more ago and split into 2 5.5 gallon carboys. In one I added some (1.5#) Dark Candi Brand "Amber" syrup and the other I didn't add anything. So the dark one is a little higher in ABV than the 4.7% Pale and has a nice depth to it without being heavy. Quite the change from the Quad and Triple!!
Yeast was the wlp530 built up on stir plates and aerated with O2. Temp was held in the 66 range for a few days before raising to 70.
Both beers are great drinkers and can be session brews, if you like to drink more than one beer at a time.
