Notes

Water chem is important with this one. Because the yeast naturally attenuates 90%+, coupled with using enzymes...you're going to end up with a very light and thin beer. The high sulfate and chloride content will help to bring out the bite of the hops (I used Sabro, use whatever you enjoy) and will round out the body. I use that same count and ratio in my Hazy IPAs for the same effect.
