I have brewed lots of beers using crystal malts and 90% of the time a recipe uses one. Several times I have made a recipe using say C60 and C120 or something, but two at the most. I had an idea today to try a malt bomb with smooth flavor utilizing more of the "crystal spectrum". Something like this...
8# 2-row Pale
1# Crystal 20
1# Crystal 40
1# Crystal 60
1# Crystal 80
I am wondering 1) if anyone has tried something like this and 2) what the consensus of the outcome would be.
Edit: Also what the style it would be. I first thought of an American Brown Ale, but I can't find any recipes that match it's profile.
