BREW SPECS

IMPORTANT BREWING NOTE

Batch Size Note: For the flavor and ABV listed on this product page, top off your fermenter to the 5-gallon / 19-liter mark.

Optional Volume Note: If your fermenter holds more volume, you can add water up to 23 liters / 6 gallons. This will produce more beer, but the flavor, body, bitterness, and ABV will be lighter.

BREW TIME

Fermentation: About 2 weeks

Carbonation and Conditioning: 3–4 weeks

Best Enjoyed: After 5–7 weeks total

Conditioning Note: Additional conditioning can help the biscuit malt, caramel sweetness, citrus hop notes, and nutty finish smooth out.
