Once the beer has finished fermentation, let it lager for one month at near-freezing temperatures. Transfer the beer to a Cornelius keg or similar container that can be flushed with CO2 and can withstand the freezing process without cracking. Freeze concentrate the beer by 20%. Transfer the still liquid portion to another container, leaving behind the ice portion. It will be best to force carbonate this beer versus trying to bottle condition it. Target a carbonation level of two volumes. A month or more of cold conditioning at near freezing temperatures will improve the beer. Serve at 43 to 46 °F (6 to 8 °C).
