Friend got a Pliny the Elder clone kit (MoreBeer) for Christmas but it was AG, so I helped him brew it today.
211 IBUs later, I can see out of one eye now. Mash hops, FWH, bittering, 45, 30 and 5, with dry-hops to come.
Mash hops created surprising amount of bitterness in the spent mash grains, which surprised me given the lack of boiling.
And with three weeks of frigid temps, the tap water cooled to 64F in 15 minutes.
