Pale Ale V 3.0
Second attempt with the new equipment (old equipment being MR Beer, new equipment being glass carboys etc.) and third attempt overall. Last time i had boil over so i bought a bigger pot and fiddled with the hop types. This won't be ready till i get back from the Czech Republic in January.
