Chamomile Lawn in the cask


Fermentation stopped on the Chamomile Lawn on Thursday or thereabouts, but I went to Bristol at the weekend so casking had to wait til this morning. I was a little nervous to taste it, as my first taste at around day 4 had the chamomile flavour quite harsh. However it has improved greatly since then, and has a wonderful floral aroma and fresh, citrus flavour. This is going to be a dangerously drinkable and refreshing drink when it’s ready. The final gravity was 1.006, but as I was in such a rush when brewing it I forgot to write down the original gravity, that doesn’t do me much good.
