Notes

Post boil - split into two batches. Chill half and pitch with Lager yeast. Ferment in Keg with post loose.

72 hours at 55F, 24 hour raise to 62, then 4-7 days at room temp. Add gelatin and cold crash.

To the other half, add 0.5 lbs sugar and 0.5 oz Citra hops and then chill when the first one is done. Ferment with Belle Saison Yeast in bucket. Ferment 10 days at 68F, rack to keg and bottle.

Maybe add 1 gallon to small fermentor add peppercorns and citrus zest.
