Mat, OMG...this is one of the best beers I've had in a long time. The orange from the zest and the grapefuit from the Cascades are nicely balanced. Poured with a nice white head. Just getting started with this guy, but good job sir.

My Cascade leaf hops are 7.4AA... so I dropped the FWH to .75oz, brewing this thing tomorrow morning!

Glad you like it! We've killed half the batch already. On my first few tastings, I thought I might add a bit more orange in the next session, but it seems to be showing through more and more as it matures.

SO, you ONLY FWH this thing, with no other 60 minute additions? Just making sure....

How long are you dry hopping this thing in the secondary? 2 weeks? After about 5 days, it looks like the ferment has slowed considerably... will rack to the secondary in a few days to free it up for my Haus Ale

Gonna have to pencil this one into the schedule Probably with some US 2 row as appsosed to the Maris Otter.

2 Row will work fine for you, honestly there probably won't be an appreciable difference. I don't think you need a mortar/pestle for the coriander, just smash it up however you can. I just happen to have one.

This looks like a great recipe and as soon as I clear some space in a fermentor, I am going for it.

I was just wondering about the 2 packages of yeast. Is the second one for the secondary fermentor or something?

Also what AA were your Cascades to give you that IBU with 6 ounces used? I am thinking about skipping the dry hop portion of this recipe, but we'll see.

Hey - the two safale packs are my own preference, you can use one and things will go fine.

The Cascades were 5.5%.

Skipping the dry hop will skip the lovely Cascades aroma-but it's up to you.
