Okay, so this is a tribute to my Columbus, Oh and alma mater roots of OSU.
Friday my wife and newborn will be out of town so I'm planning on brewing up 3 batches. Its hard to brew when you have a baby! This beer will be on the brew deck:
Silver Bullets (all columbus) IPA
3lbs Sorghum Extract
1lb 6oz. brown rice syrup
1lb candi syrup
1lb of corn sugar
1lb of lactose
.5 oz @ 60
.5 oz @ 15
.5 oz @ 5
.5 oz @ 0 minutes
1 oz Dry Hop for 7 days in primary
My question is this: which candi syrup would go better with Columbus hops? D-45 or the simplicity (clear)? I wanted to use the D-45 to make this more scarlet in color and fit with the theme. But I'm not sure if the D-45 would compliment the hops well. Any thoughts?
