Notes

Pitch at 48, aerate with pure oxygen. Ferment at 50. Add dry hops after 4 days of fermentation. After 7 days total, slowly raise temp to 60 for a 3 day diacetyl rest. Slowly lower temp to 34. Once at terminal gravity (about 14 days total) keg beer. Lager at 34 for about one month before serving.

Note: Imperial L13 Global is same strain as White Labs 830.
