Notes
Ferment at 60 - 62 F until fermentation begins, then bring fermenter to 47 - 52 F for 7 days.

Rack into secondary until target gravity reached and beer has cleared (approx. 4 weeks). Begin lagering: lager at 45 F and slowly decrease temp to 34 F. After lagering has been completed, bring beer back to 60 - 62 F for a day or two then back down to serving temp. Force carb and enjoy!
