Notes

Made this before. Can't achieve lager temps so I use US-05 and ferment around 62-64 f then raise up to about 70 after 10 days, then put in my fridge and bring down to about 42 F for 2 days. Bottle, and let sit for a month before drinking. I used clarity ferm, and this stuff came out clear as can be. If you want less hop presence then omit the 10 min cascade addition. The 1 oz of blackprinz is to add color, but no real harsh flavor.

Can't get yuengling in California... So this is the next best thing.

Added blackprinz and vienna malt to try to get the color and flavor of Yuengling Lager. .

Awesome lawnmower beer. Wish I could make 10 gallon batches of this at a time
