Notes

Batch #12A-5A
American Amber(Red)Ale with a sharp bite of hops and a lemon kick in the tail
American 2-row pale ale malt, American Crystal 60L, Victory malt rounds out the grain bill. Mash temperatures in the range of 152°F to 154°F creating a wort with a nice balance of fermentable and non-fermentable sugars.
Magnum hops adds a balanced bitterness, homegrown whole leaf Cascade hops adds a distinctive grapefruit flavor and Lemon Drop hops during flameout adds a special aroma.
Yeast: White Labs California Ale WLP001 PurePitch Lot #1025150 Manuf. April 12, 2016. QC cell count 2.82e9/ml slurry.
