Tasting notes

A pretty decent hazy but does not quite deliver the big hops impact that I would have expected from 300g hops. I drank some of this blended with some of my previous brew as I thought the combination added up to an improved beer. However, sampling again as I write this, it is actually pretty good on it's own.
