WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

Brew as normal. Primary fermenter for 2 weeks, dry-hop in secondary fermerter for 1 week.

Was a bit worried that I added too many hops and it would transform to an IPA, but that definitely did not happen.

Slight hop aroma, but is nice. Distinctive bitterness, though not overwhelming. Smooth, dry, with a nice creamy head. The color is a dark gold and cloudy, especially when chilled. Refreshing, especially on a hot day. Overall a delicious, easy to drink, summer beer. A nice American pale ale with bursts of hop flavor.
