Another brew/transfer day

Transferring the ESB to secondary and brewing a revised batch of the black ipa.
New brix on the ESB is 8.4, which puts the current ABV at 7.01%. Soooo we overshot a tad, but hey, at least you'll get real tipsy off it ;)

Recipe:
1 lb black patent
1/2 lb crystal 80L
Wyeast 1332 Northwest Ale
1.5 oz Magnum hops (13.1 AA) (beginning of boil)
1 oz Golding hops (locally grown in Ballard, AA between 4 and 6) (finishing)
9 lbs dark malt

Brix is 17.8. Which gives us a specific gravity of 1.0874, which is right on! Damn, we're good. Brush our shoulders off? ;)

Till next time, have a hoppy day :)
