SNPA clone

[Two Wheeler]

Put together a recipe for a Sierra Nevada clone. Based off their website and this BYO article: http://byo.com/cider/item/3025-sierra-nevada-pale-ale-clone

Brewing this on Sunday. I won't be able to compare to the real thing, but should be a good beer regardless.

I'm surprised they don't dry hop this. If yours even comes close it'll be a great beer, looking forward to trying it!

Yeah, I might throw an ounce of cascade in the keg depending on how it comes out
