<p>My half-batch came out very dark and not at all hoppy. The original recipe
calls for 9 months of bottle conditioning, but I found it to be very pleasant
after just 2 months. I prefer to split a (12oz) bottle with a friend. This is
quite enough to lend a pleasant feeling of warmth. It's said to keep at cellar
temperatures for 2 years, but I doubt this has ever been experimentally proven.
<p>Pairs well with left-over ginger triple-chocolate wedding cake.
