My first attempt at brewing all grain beer - just like they do in the brewery.
Won't be ready for 8 weeks, but hey.
The recipe says the final product will be like London Pride.
Or possibly in my case, London Tried.

Dear all
It is with regret that’s myself and the committee have had to agree to cancel Sunday’s fate. The forecast for tonight is heavy rain, Saturday heavy rain and Sunday heavy rain.
We want to let stallholders know as soon as possible to give people as much notice as possible as we understand it will affect their businesses.
We will be back bigger and better and hope to see you next time
If you’re stallholder Suzie will have emailed you. Please respond to her to let her know you have received it and we will refund all money.
Paul
