So this just didn't turn out near as good as hoped. The big hop flavor and aroma was missing and the malt flavor just didn't work. Is there anything obviously wrong with the formula? I'm thinking I just didn't get the right hops and wasn't familiar with columbus which I substituted for centennial hops. Maybe I messed up in the mash. It was drinkable and no real off taste, just didn't really work. Hopefully some aging will help.
