Citra Lager

The cellar (fermentation room) is 50* so it seemed like a good time to brew a lager.  I bought some base malt at the Fair Share Co-op and was looking at their hops and there was the Citra.  So here is the recipe, a lager finished with Citra in the secondary.

Grains:
Maris Otter        10 pounds
Munich malt        6 oz

Hops:
Amarillo          8.0%     1 oz     60 min
Amarillo                       1 oz     30 min
Cascade           4.8%     1 oz     15 min

Citra               12.3%    1 oz secondary

Yeast              Saflager  34/70

Brewed        1/17/2018  OG 1040
                    1/23/2018         1012  Citra added
