Hi, I want to double check with people that brewed this. 7.5AAU of northern brewer? That puts the beer to about 30ish IBUs. That's quite low for an IPA. Does the jasmine add a lot of bitterness?
You're not missing too much. Lagering is cold-aging. You're confusing lagering with lager beer fermentation. Generally lagers are fermented 45-50 degrees, then aged as cold to freezing as possible for a period during which they condition.
