I used brulosophys short and shoddy "lagering" method, more or less fermented at ale temps but with a cold crash at the end. Easy to do, even without fancy temp controls
Hmm...This sounds pretty damn tasty.
What yeast you using?
I make a SMASH cream ale with pilsner malt and mandarina bavaria hops that's almost too easy to drink on a warm sunny day. Just under 5% and about 15 IBUs.
If I want it to drink really easy I mash high and use US-05. Otherwise S-04 or K-97 are my go to for most beers. (I like dry yeast)
I usually dry hop it with 14g during active fermentation (and then another 14g once the krausen falls, sometimes). It verges on pale ale aroma with the full 28g.Hmm...This sounds pretty damn tasty.

You ever dry hop it with the Mandarian?
