Notes

http://homebrewacademy.com/citra-pale-ale

1st runnings should = 14qts (3.5 gallons)
2nd runnings should = 15qts (3.75 gallons)

preboil gravity should = 1.037

Overestimated effieciency so preboil = 1.034. Did 90 minute boil.

Primaried 3 weeks around 65F then bottled and carbed to ~2.5 volumes CO2. Tastes fantastic. Good balanced bitterness with huge hop aroma and flavor paired with just enough malt backbone.
