Notes

Having not had a Zombie Dust I cannot say if this recipe is a good match to the original but it is fantastic. Of the 20ish extract recipes that I have brewed this one is a favorite among my beer loving neighbors and it is my personal favorite. It has a permanent tap on my keezer and if you love the citrus flavors of american hops you should really give this one a try.

Slightly modified from original version of this clone recipe. Main changes are the steeping grains that were not available locally to grains that are very similar but locally available and changed the Safale-04 to Safale-05, just because I really like the 05.

Steep the grains in the mid 150s for 45 minutes.
60 minute boil, and add the extract at the beginning.
