I am looking to attempt a Shiner Ruby Redbird Clone. There is an old thread on this forum I researched that never made it to a conclusion. Need some suggestions on Hops additions for the grapefruit flavor addition.
I have an all grain regular Shiner Bock lager clone recipe from my local brew supply store. I am going to add some grated fresh ginger at some point in the boil, yet to determine the exact amount or addition time.
Need advise on the Hops. Been trying to research hops to provide the grapefruit taste. Amarillo comes up the most in my searches. Anyone think this is a good choice or have other recommendations? Would I be better off just adding grapefruit zest late or post boil?
SWMBO loves the Ruby Redbird, if I can pull this off she might start to think the few hundred bucks worth of brewing gear I have accumulated is worth it.
