Notes

April 14th
45 minute mash @ 152 (drop to 150.5)
45 minute boil
Shake for oxygen
67 degree ferment -- active ferementation April 15th morning
Rehydrated dry yeast - Nottingham - 1 pack
April 17th 9:00pm added dry hop. Fermentation temp bumped up to 68
Smelled ferementer when dry hopping -- definitely had a decent amount of sulfur smell to it .
Sulfur smell went away and this hands down is the best Session IPA I've ever had.

Absolutely love this beer.
