Notes

http://www.deschutesbrewery.com/recipe/mirror-pond-pale-ale-clone

Should lean toward dry, quaffable. Simple grist bill. Don't over complicate the grist bill.
Pitch yeast at 64F and ferment at 66F.

Secondary when yeast have completed 85% attenuation. Add dry hops, continue secondary until attenuated, about 4-5 days in secondary total.
Keg condition 1 week.
If bottling, condition 2-3 weeks.
