Hey guys, so I have been wanting to work on a Barleywine for a while now, but the aging requirements have kept me from doing so, UNTIL NOW! I am trying to put together a recipe similar to Sierra Nevada's Bigfoot Barleywine. Just looking for a well-hopped, malty yet not too sweet Barleywine in the American tradition. This is what I have come up with off the top of my head, being totally uneducated/inexperienced with brewing barleywines. Any insight on how to make a great American Barleywine would be very much appreciated!
