Originally a challenge to produce a finished beer in 10 days grain to glass, this has evolved into a house staple- sessionable at 3.5% and just exquisite when served at cellar temps on cask (my newest project!) or draught to a very light 1-1.5 volumes.

Carbonate to 1-1.5 volumes to approximate the levels achieved under 'real ale' conditions (use a carbonation chart!); my most recent batch will be racked to 5L mini-kegs and served on a cobbled-together beer engine.

Is this the same from the 10'der and mild?

I will vouch this is a really nice brew. Very enjoyable mild.

How are you getting it to finish that dry if your mashing at 158? I've been having a hell of a time getting my beers to dry out that much.

Pitching an appropriate amount of healthy yeast, proper aeration and the low-gravity of this style helps tremendously.

Hmm, it doesn't appear so. A text export is the best I can do.
