Notes

4 oz. corn sugar added to boil

Approx. 1 liter of fresh-squeezed backyard navel orange juice (14 Brix) added to primary fermenter only after 2 weeks of fermentation. The OJ was pasteurized at 170 F for 20 minutes before adding to fermenter.

"Dry-zested" the beer in secondary for 10 days, using the zest from one lemon, one lime and one grapefruit.
