BCB Rye IPA
This is a tasty, yet big beer at 7.2% abv. The flaked barley gives it incredible head retention and a cascading effect like a nitrogen pour.
10# 2 Row Pils
2# Rye
2# Vienna
12 oz. Crystal 60L
8 oz. Flaked Barley
1 oz. Tettnanger FWH 4.4% (First Wort Hopped)
1 oz. Chinook 60 min 12%
0.5 oz. Chinook 30 min 12%
0.5 oz. Chinook 5 min 12%
Mashed in at 154 degrees for 70 minutes. Ran off 7 gallons and boiled for 90 minutes.
This looks excellent, and i've got a 1/2 lb of Chinook just waiting for some lovin'. What do you think about Willamette instead of the Tettnanger? Obviously a different flavor profile, but i think it could fly.
What would you think of some Simco in place of the Chinook. I just got 2 OZS of 11.6%AA

It depends on what you think of Simcoe, I think the aroma and taste is like cat pee( I'm serious)
I do not like Simcoe and it will change the recipe quite a bit if you are susceptible to those flavors
I've had this beer and liked it but I would not with Simcoe
For sure Simco is a different taste, but I see lots of clones of the dogfish 60 miniute IPA using it. I was going to try one of those but I also wanted to do one with Rye, then I saw this recipie and figured it may be the right one for me. I will try it and see how it comes out. Results will be posted
