As a local Portland head and big fan of Ruby, I'm gonna attempt this one. Not looking for exact clone here. Just what I think would be good.
PM-full boil 5.5 gal
3lb X light DME
3.5lb 2-row
1lb wheat malt
.25lb 40L
.5lb honey malt
.4oz Columbus (cause I have a sh@t ton!) @ 60
.2oz Columbus @ 30
3lb raspberry puree @ 3min
Might split up some in boil, some in secondary
70% efficiency
OG 1.047 FG 1.012 4.62 % ABV IBU 27.8+/-
Beer Tools Pro doesn't seem to add anything to OG for the raspberries, it'll "up" it a lil more I'm guessing. Could be wrong.
I took a bit from all the recipes posted here. Might be a lilttle "meatier" than Rube, buy I think it's a little too lite as is. Any thoughts fellas? Much appreciated. Oh and I'm pretty new to the forum and loving every minute of it. My brewing has gained leaps and bounds w/ all your help. Thanks!
Edit:In their pubs you can request a "Rubinator" Ruby mixed w/ there Terminator stout. SWMBO (who doesn't like "chick beers" loves this) If this works I'll adapt it to a darker style.
