Directions:

Mash malts at 152° F (67° C) and allow to rest one hour. Sparge at 168° F (76° C). Boil 60 minutes. Chill to 70° F (21° C) and oxygenate. Ferment at 68-72° F (19-22° C). “Active” dry hops are added 2 days after fermentation starts, and the “complete” dry hops are added after terminal gravity is reached. Allow to sit on a second dose of dry hops for 3 days, and then rack to secondary for a week. Rack to a keg, chill, and force carbonate.

Omit acidulated malt and substitute 8 lb (3.63 kg) pale malt extract syrup for the rest. Dissolve extract syrup completely in reverse osmosis water, then top off to desired boil volume. Proceed as above.
