I like to have some of this about all the time. For me it's like having my own version of ESB. It's very sweet but drinkable. It's also the only recipe that i've duplicated because i liked the first so much. The one i'm drinking now is a lower alcohol version for my friends wedding. 5.4% ABV. Still tastes great.
