Soon it will be time to cask the IPA. I brewed it last monday, and it's been happily/hoppily blebbing away since. I'm hoping I can get it through 2ndary and conditioned before the 22nd to celebrate and inebriate my birthday celebration. Good excuse to kill the entirety in one night! :)

Ingredients: (for 7 gallons)

10# 2 row pale malt
2# 2 row vienna malt
1.5 # 40L crystal
1.5 # 80L crystal
1 # Wheat
1 ounce Chinook (13% alpha, boil)
1/2 ounce Northern Brewer (7.6% alpha, flavor)
1/2 ounce Cascade (homegrown, finish)
1/2 ounce Northern Brewer (finish)
Burton ale yeast, then Bohemian Lager

Procedure:

Burton ale yeast, then bohemian lager. OG: 1.048 for 7 gallons. Fermented primary at 70, 2ndary to 55. I plan to fine the 2ndary, then rack/prime in cask. Low pressure!

Specifics:

O.G.: 1.048
