Notes

kegged this on 2/18/2014 after a cold crash of 72 hours put it on gas for 36 hours

purged gas then on serving pressure until last night 2/23/2014

very nice brew will brew it again nice and crisp will be a great summer brew

OG was higher by a bit 1.050 so ABV is a little more

but still a nice light beer

update 2-27-2014 * this is a great brew I will be brewing this again in a week or so

Cheers!
