Notes

Mash grains at 149°F (65°C) for 60 minutes. Mash out at 160°F (71°C) and sparge with 170°F (76°C) water. Collect enough runoff to yield 5 gal. (18.9 L) after a 60-minute boil, approximately 6 gal. (22.7 L). Boil 60 minutes, adding hops and Irish moss as indicated.

Chill to 63–68°F (17–20°C), transfer to fermentor, pitch yeast, and aerate well. After 3 or 4 days, add the first dry-hop addition. Continue fermenting at 63°F (17°C) for a total of 7–10 days. Rack to secondary with the second dry-hop addition and age three weeks, at 50°F (10°C) if possible.

If kegging, rack to keg and add the third dry-hop addition to keg in a hop bag. If bottling, add the third dry-hop addition to secondary and then bottle normally. Carbonate to 1–1.5 vol. (2–3 g/L) of CO₂.
