Notes

An American Pale Ale made from mostly Europe malts and American hops. How un-American.

I brew with a very high water to grain ratio, which tends to yield more fermentation wort. To compensate, I raise the mash temp a few degrees. Adjust as needed.

This is a slight twist to Yooper's house pale ale with ingredients I had on hand.
