Notes

Make a starter for this yeast and it will come out so crisp and clean! Ferment at 66 degrees for 7 days. Lower to 55 degrees for the second week of fermentation. After 14 days total, crash it to 32 and hold it for one week. Transfer to keg with gelatin solution for a super clear and tasty beer.
