    How to fit cascade hops into this recipe.

    Your right... It is an English beer. http://www.northernbrewer.com/shop/brewing/recipe-kits/pro-series/surly-brewing-co/surly-bitter-brewer-pro-series-partial-mash-kit.html The description does mention citrus notes. You are right I'll keep as is and use the extra cascade for another recipe.

    Small clear flip top bottles.

    Sorry I didn't make it my uncle from italy makes it. I do know he makes it with everclear and I do not know how he gets to make it taste just like a lemon. He makes every flavor. Chocolate, mango, orange, etc.... It's amazing, my gf who doesn't even really drink alcohol loves it.
