BREWER'S TIP

Brewers Tip Icon

For a real authentic experience invite all of your friends around to help on brewday. Try splitting the batch up after primary fermentation and dry hopping at different rates to see which you prefer. You can also blend the different versions back together to see how that tastes, have fun with it!
