Notes

This beer was part of an experiment put on by the Jordan Brew Club (Jordan, MN). We all started off with the same malt base/hops, but then were challenged to make a change in order to make the beer unique.

The original recipe called for Citra/Galaxy/Mosaic in a boil/whirlpool/dry hop schedule. I decided to change the hops over to El Dorado & Lemon Drop in a similar schedule. The two complimented each other pretty well, with the El Dorado having a bit of earthy funk to offset the bright lemony Lemon Drop.

I initially used the default Whirlpool hop attenuation settings of Brewer's Friend (10%), which gave me a 90+IBUs. After tasting the brew, I knew that setting was off, and spoke to a couple of professional brewers, who told me to adjust the attenuation to about 3%, which gave 46 IBU...much more accurate to what I was tasting in this beer.
