Festival American IPA delivers a big hit of citrus and tropical fruits, with underlying earthy and floral hop notes on the nose. A combination of complex fruity hop character and light, fresh malt notes on the palate, with the subtle sweetness perfectly balanced by a moderate, satisfying bitterness. Pours vibrant gold with a white head.
Hop additions: Centennial, Citra, Motueka.
Makes: approx. 23 litres at 5.6% ABV.
What Equipment Do You Need? A 25-litre fermenter with airlock, a hydrometer, a syphon, and either bottles with caps or a pressure barrel. Always sanitise thoroughly with VWP or ChemSan.
