Mosaic/Amarillo/Citra APA
Posted: Thu Nov 24, 2016 3:03 pm
Bit of a user-upper this one, had a bit of Citra and some Mosaic and Amarillo that needed using. Kept the grain bill pretty basic, and lower on the crystal than some recent brews.


Not much to say really, brew went smoothly. Should be tasty - there's certainly no shortage of hops!Recipe Specifications
