I brewed a 6 gallon batch this past Sunday exactly to recipe. It was the first time I've tried nottingham and damn it had a fierce but short-lived fermentation. Yesterday it looked like a billion horny sea monkies having a beer-soaked orgy; today it was all quieted down bubbling slowly. The smell coming from the blowoff jug was luscious bananas, I can't wait to taste a gravity sample.
