Bottled the Pale Ale on Monday, sampled the leftovers, it's official, I dig it.

Well I racked it into a Secondary and dry hopped it Monday night, I had a sample and it was surprisingly good with the extra Maltiness from added grain and a longer boil, it did have a slight bitterness to the finish, but I kinda dig it...

OK, good to know. Thank you

I went to the Homebrewer and bought the same ingredients and added 1# 20L
