Log:	Brew date: 4/7/13 sparge took over two hours but was super efficient. Aimed for three gallons but got more han that. 4/21/13 bottled
Tasting:	5/26/13 I was aiming for more raisin notes with the Special B malt but I only taste Belgium. I think that this beer would confuse most people as being a Belgian but its brewed with Brittish yeast, hence the name. With some finishing hops, this could be superb.
