09/11/11 Brewday Fat Tire Clone III

This is my third iteration of a Fat Tire clone.  I think it may be my last, the beer is just not that interesting.  This is also the LAST beer I will use Nottingham dry yeast in.  There is way too much fruity esters in this beer.  I remembered Nottingham being much cleaner.  (Especially considering the low fermentation temps.)
