WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

Note: depending perhaps on yeast, and other minor things, this recipe is also very similar to Georgetown Bodhizafa.
Tried and true are mosaic citra combos (deschutes fresh squeezed, ft George suicide squeeze, others) and in this instance adds chinook for more citrusy grapefruit appeal. Also could use London ESB yeast, I think those others I mentioned might use that strain.

If you prefer less grapefruit essence, reduce or eliminate chinook dry hop, or go the other way if you wish.

After about 2 weeks at 40F, several people think this is my best beer of many dozens brewed. Success as a lasting recipe! Yippee!!!
