This beer went down really well at the local home brew club scoring an average of 39 point for taste

it has a great floral nose and

Did you add the 1# of corn sugar in the mash or in the boil?

Added during the boil

Thanks for the recipe. :rockin: I just finished a 6er of Weyerbacher's Double Simcoe. Very good beer.. This will probably be my first brew when I go to all grain. Simcoe hops are delicious.

That looks and sounds like a really good beer - I want to definitely try it!
I have yet to dive into all grain... Is there an extract/specialty grain substitute you could recommend?
Also if I were to just do a 60 minute boil (skipping the 90 minute hop addition as well), would that make the IBU 67.7?
I'm not trying to futs with the recipe too much but am curious, especially if there is an extract + Specialty grain method.
Thanks!

I just want to give some props to this recipe. Probably my favorite brew in the last year. Thanks again for posting this.

Hi, I'm relatively new to brewing.
Could you explain the last two hop additions?

Is that 1oz at flameout, or are you dumping it into the fermenter?

Also, is that 2oz 5 days into the fermentation, or 5 days before you pull it out?

Flameout into the kettle

2oz in the primary i would suggest after aggressive fermentation has calmed down. Like 2-3 days post pitch.

(All this is my opinion of course)

Nice. I think I'm going to try this one next.

1 oz is at flame out

2 oz was dry hoping in the secondary fermenter
i usual lput dry hops in a few days before i have to rack to bottles or keg

Thanks
