DJ Bitter III
This Ale is similar to DJ II except the bittering hops are Fuggles instead of Northern Brewers.
This ale is very good when fresh and conditioned properly in the keg and served as a draught.
My ales improved dramatically when I started limiting my original gravities to
realistic style levels. More malt is not better...in my opinion.
