Instructions

1. Heat 2-3 gallons of water to 155°F.

4. Bring the water to a boil.

5. Once boiling, add the Magnum and Columbus hops and boil for 60 minutes.

7. With 15 minutes left in the boil, add the Hallertau Blanc hops and Yeast Energizer / Irish Moss Combo Packet at this time. Add your honey and rinse the bottle with water and add to the boil to get all available sugars out. Stir until fully dissolved.

8. With 5 minutes left in the boil, add the East Kent Golding hops.

9. Terminate boil and cool the wort to 70°F.

10. Transfer the wort to a fermenter and top off with cold water to 5 gallons.

11. Pitch the yeast (Nottingham and EC-1118) and ferment at 68°F for 14-21 days. This is a big beer and has a lot of fermenting to do.

12. After fermentation has stopped. Bottle or keg the beer with the priming sugar and allow 2 weeks to condition. Enjoy!
