APA 2016

Been busy, so recipes and reviews will be short and to the point.

Results: Very hazy since skipped Irish moss. Good but delicate hop aroma, fruity juicy. Taste was also a bit juicy, but slightly harsh bitterness. Overall very pleasant New England style APA. Next time should be slightly less bitter.
