NZ Nelson Sauvin 12.5 % 0.25 oz 3.5 Loose Pellet Hops (10min)

Danstar Nottingham Ale Yeast (Dry)

The malt bill should be similar to a typical Kolsh, with the sugar added to increase alcohol and dry the brew out, and the small amount of acid malt to make it more refreshing. Wanted to use the Nelson Sauvin to learn about the hops. Using the Nottingham due to its clean flavor profile.

Not necessarily true to style, but if I wanted that I would buy some from the store.
