I just noticed a difference between the numbers the brewer gives for this beer and the numbers Tasty provides. Brewer: starting gravity 1.055 to 1.058, finishing gravity: 1.016 to 1.018, abv 5.6%. Tasty: starting gravity: 1.058, finishing gravity: 1.012, abv 6.1%. This is a reasonable difference between the brews - and yet they taste the same? Could this be that the clone has a slightly higher bitterness?
