Notes

4mL Hop Shot for 40 IBU's at 60min.

This recipe enhances the NB Simcoe Session Ale
http://www.northernbrewer.com/documentation/allgrain/AG-SMASHSessionAle.pdf

Kit was given to me to brew, featuring a 9-month old grain crush. BRY-97 yeast was expired, so I'm using my slurry Conan on this.
3, 1oz bags of Simcoe included of unknown storage quality these last 9 months will be used.

Pilsen DME is getting thrown into this recipe because I have an partial bag lying around to get rid of. QP of honey malt same way.

Therefore, I'm going to boil a smaller volume of over-all water (7 gal vs 7.6 gal), increase boil time to 75 minutes (+15 from 60) and then top up to 1.046 not knowing how well the 2-row converts overall.
