Notes

Significant losses due to large volume of whole hops, resulting in low efficiency. Actual volumes were higher when hops were included. Efficiency at mashing and after boil was closer to 75%.

Super tasty recipe. Bitterness is nice. Not too mouth puckering, so it's easier to drink. Lovely tropical fruit aromas from the citra.
