I backed the project on Kickstarter with $60 way over a year ago. Never received anything. He stopped posting updates on Kickstarter about 8 months ago. There are a lot of us in that boat. Unfortunate.

Might be about time for me to brew this one again too. I remember it fondly. :) By the way, the original is called Gordon G'Knight now (for anyone using Search).

I bought a bottle a few days ago, gonna try to keep it around for a while before I open it. :)

Maple or poplar will work well. I used maple.
