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

Hoppy, bitter, and herbal. Not citrusy. Hint of sweetness.

Used a variation of continuous hopping, tossing in a bit of both hops every few minutes.
