This is honestly one of my favorite beers of all time, if you haven't had it, do yourself a favor and pick one up. Crisp as all hell, gorgeous lemony aroma and thirst-quenching hop bitterness. Anyone have any thoughts on a clone recipe? Here's what I've got so far:
-Measured FG 1.010, ABV 4.6%, which translates to OG 1.045, 78% apparent attenuation
-Big lemony aroma and long-lasting american-hop bitterness, est IBU 50. Maybe centennial for 40 IBUs of bittering and late citra for aroma.
- Crisp lager mouthfeel, I'm guessing a strain similar to WLP830 German Lager Yeast (Attenuation is right in the middle of that strain's 75-80% rating)
- Maybe 80-85% Pilsner malt mashed near probably mashed around 152, no sugar additives
- ...adjuncts.... no idea. Color is strangely dark, 9 SRM. Not sure how to get that in a lager without making it sweeter.
