I'm drinking this right now!!! - YES Hair of the dog!!!

I'm serving this on Saturday at local festival and I convinced myself to do another carbonation check. Right before morning coffee.

It super clean, nice gold color, good head formation. Very balanced too, neither malt or hops are prominent. Honey is barely detectable.

Damned Good Summer Quaffer!
 
Here's a morning quaffer! :D

Sounds and looks tasty. I was discussing making a hoppy pale at the last Oregon Brew Crew meeting.

Love Nugget.

Love Nugget.

Sounds like a 1970s rock band!! :rockin:

I agree 100%. Nugget has good bittering capability, smells good and grows like crazy here in Iowa.
 
I served this beer at Summerfest on Saturday. We had 16 beers on tap. This beer was the first to go empty. :rockin:
 
I am gonna try this recipe, when do i add the honey?
I will have to change the recipe a bit and use all Cascades.
Whatcha think?
thanks

You add the honey when lautering into the brew kettle or when its about to come to a boil.

This would be good with all cascades. It would have a nice citrusy flavor but not to bitter or hoppy. It would have more hop nose than flavor though. Which I think is good for this style.

Notes

Add honey while lautering or before 1st hop addition.
 
I brewed this 3/12/2010. It came up at 1.050 OG...much higher than expected.
I did use Nugget hops in combination with Cascade.I am hoping that this doesn't finish too sweet! Or too alcohol HOT !

I tweaked the recipe to 1.049 and there is no IBU change in promash .

At:
1.040-1.049 : 22.8 IBUs
1.051 ~ 22.6 IBUs
1.053 ~ 22.4 IBUs
1.056 ~ 22.1 IBUs
1.058 ~ 21.9 IBUs
1.060 ~ 21.7 IBUs
1.062 ~ 21.4 IBUs
1.065 ~ 21.2 IBUs
1.067 ~ 21.0 IBUs
_______________
1.103 ~ 18 IBUs

From a gut feel I don't believe the values for IBU as it goes towards 1.100

I don't think there is a need to worry here. Let it ferment completely and you'll be good to go!

:tank:
 
First taste---it seems a little bit heavy. Great overall flavor but maybe too much, as noted i came up a bit too high on the OG, will back off next time to bring it in line with your numbers.

Still very nice
 
Let me know how it fairs. - I really liked this as simple summer beer. Its easy to make, cheap and BMC-folk will like it quite a bit. That said it still has a good flavor.
