It's a different color, it's a different taste (not as sharpish as Ofest, more sweet), and I think it might be lower in carbonation, not sure. <BR/><BR/>Guy?

It's hard to say when things will happen, and until they do, he can't do anything. Even once they do happen, Guy wants to get a solid reserve of beer built up before he opens. So...it's gonna be a while!<BR/><BR/>Which kind of answers Joe's question: Guy's not doing <I>any</I> brewing for now, decoction or otherwise.Lew Brysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04084380741402026573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315262155858800734.post-81873905826389951472007-06-26T21:17:00.000-04:002007-06-26T21:17:00.000-04:00Does Guy decoct?
