Brewers Notes:

For best flavor, condition at 65-70 degrees for one week, then cold condition for 2-4 weeks after that at refridgerator temperatures. Good to make in the winter - cold condition in your garage at near-freezing temps.

Wonderful red colored Anchor Steam knockoff. Also good made with 8 oz Crystal malt instead of the 4 oz each of red and biscuit.
