Application Tip:

To further add hop character to the Pale Ale, dry hop the beer for 3 days with an additional 1/4 - 1/3 ozs. of  hops, such as,  Amarillo, Simcoe, Centennial, Cascade or Citra. Following the finish of fermentation, add the hops to the primary for 3 days before siphoning to secondary. Alternatively, siphon the fermented beer to the secondary fermentor and add the hops to the beer 3 days prior to packaging. (Additional hops sold separately.) 

Application Tip:

To upgrade the yeast to a liquid culture, purchase the Wyeast 1272 All-American Ale yeast separately. Providing moderate fruitiness, the strain ferments dry and crisp, allowing the hops to pop through the malt backbone of the pale ale recipe. (Additional yeast sold separately.)
