It was burping through the airlock every 15 seconds 22 hours after pitching.
This morning every 4 seconds 46 hours after pitching.

Is it repackaged Nottingham?
Sommeliers recommend that you swirl a glass of wine and inhale its bouquet before throwing it in the face of your enemy.

I have no idea, but on a different forum I saw a post claiming it was similar to S-04.

That would probably explain the “London” name. I have two packs and wondered what it was like. Good to know, thanks!
