Dry Hop (Optional)
This recipe is intentionally supplied without a dry hop schedule, giving you the freedom to tailor the aroma to your own taste.
For a classic American Pale Ale finish, try adding 50g of Amarillo and Citra during fermentation. Centennial or Mosaic also make excellent alternatives if you want to put your own spin on the recipe.
The recipe gives you the canvas. The dry hop is where you sign your name.
