Notes

1.5 mL hop shots at 60 min.

After chilling to 170F, whirlpool hops for 25 min, then continuing chilling. Once cooled to ~80F, Whirlpool to come hop/trub and rack to fermenter. 500 mL A24 dry hop starter (no cold crash). Ferment at 68F with slow ramp to 74F over 3 days. Add puréed blueberries (use strainer bag) when fermentation is slowing along with 3 oz dry hop. Once completed, drop yeast at 60F and 3 oz dry hop for 48 hr. Cold crash completely and package.
