Notes

Not true to style. Using American APA-style hops. 21L into fermenter. Diacytel rest and dry hopped w/ 30g citra for one week before bottling. Followed by lagering for 12 wks.

Additional notes: Skipped adding extra yeast and racking. Rather, went straight into bottle after three weeks. Citra dry hop gave a slight cat pee funk. Otherwise, highly drinkable - good malt sweet/bitter balance, good carbonation and clear enough to read the newspaper through it. Crisp and clean. Will definitely brew again but without the citra dry hop!
