The Importance of Taking Measurements

The keg of Guinea Pig IPA poured its last pint tonight so I put Her Majesty's Sloppy Seconds ESB on tap. This was the beer made from the second runnings of the barleywine I brewed a couple months ago. It was an experiment to see how it would turn out. My first taste of the finished beer was a sweet beer, nothing like the ESB I was expecting. However, because I did not take good notes on this beer after getting it in the fermenter I don't know what the cause of the sweetness is. It could be that I didnt add enough hops or it didnt ferment to completion. The experiment now doesn't help because I was lazy.
