Carbonate keg, let sit in fridge 24 hours before tapping.

Unexpected party.  My brothers helped to empty this one faster than I anticipated, but they're my brothers, what do you expect.  I guess that's a sure sign they liked it.  Next time I'll have to ask for donations towards the next recipe, eh?

Also, this one didn't turn out how I thought it would, I used too much bittering hops.  One ounce of Chinook would be just fine, then maybe some at the end too.  Always a next time!!
