1 lb. American Munich
8 oz. American crystal 120L
4 oz. Belgian CaraMunich
2 oz. Belgian Special B
1.5 lb. Flaked rye
1 lb. Rye malt

Mash: 74% efficiency
mash 60 minutes at 152

1 tsp irish moss at 15 min.

Hops:
.5 oz. Columbus (13% AA, 60 min.)
.5 oz. Columbus (13% AA, 20 min.)
.5 oz. Columbus (13% AA, 10 min.)
.5 oz. Columbus (13% AA, 2 min.)

I just made it over easter break and bottled it on friday! I tasted it while bottling. It tasted great. i can't wait to drink it cold next month.
My sp g was 1.035 and ended up at 1.010! Seemed a little light but full of Esters!

Brewed this 6 weeks ago and just tapped

wow!

this is my 75th all grain and one of the best. Exactly what I am looking for, a Rye Pale Ale. Not an enamel stripping Rye IPA

Had a b#tch of a time running this off, ran low on rice hulls.

I used Denny's 1450 on this and man is it perfect. Malty, Bitter, Depth

Kudos on a one of the better recipes I've brewed off this site.

I'd post a pic but my glass is never full

Just bottled 5 gallons of this today, and man, the hydro sample was awesome! Can't wait to try a carbed bottle in a few weeks. Thanks, OP, for the great recipe!

Great recipe!

Tell me about it. I just had a 3 month old batch after 2.5 weeks of force carbing at 12 PSI @38 degrees... really really good beer!

I just had beer club and my rye ale was awesome! Definitely will make this again!

Cracked open a carbonated bottle of this on Friday after much impatience. Holy crap, is this ever good. Definitely going to brew this again. Nice job, OP!

Chrslund · 06-14-2012, 03:38 AM

Just finished carbonating and tried tonight. Great beer, I will definitely make this one again.

This beer is fantastic. The only thing I can add to the conversation is another picture of the final product. I brewed this on May 5th and follow the OP's recipe exactly.
