I'm going to bs brewing a Sour Golden Ale similar to the "Petrus" recipe in Wild Brews. Off the top of my head I believe it's 90% pils 10% Carahell (10L) to 1.055ish. I'm going to use this recipe as a starting point, but want to add a little unmalted grain to give the bugs some more to chew on and some added complexity.
I've used unmalted wheat in a Lambic that's currently 6 months old, so I don't really have a basis for the flavors and level of dextrins that these grains contribute in a wild beer. What are some of your favorite grains to use and what have they contributed to your final beer?
