Notes

Based off of Matthew Herrold's Meanbrews APA (see his YouTube channel for recipe), adjusting for my malts and hops on hand. Biggest changes are subbing all MO for his combo of 2-Row and Munich as base malts, and for hops subbing Centennial for Cascade, and NZH-107 instead of Citra (both are similar).

Ferment at 66º until about 5 pts from FG, then raise to 70º and add dry hops. Remove after 2 days.
