Procedure:

2. Cool to below 76 °F (24 °C) and pitch White Labs European Ale yeast.

3. Ferment between 65 and 75 °F
(16 and 24 °C).

4. When fermentation is complete, bottle or keg as desired or rack to a secondary and age an additional 2 weeks below 60 °F (16 °C) for that authentic alt smoothness.
