Giving this a go with safale 04. just put it in the fermenter tonight.

Very good.

I thought bass had corn in it?

Hey, Great recipe. I tried it out and at first got a very astringent finish but it is aging is well and I hope enter it in to a few comps. I will give you the cred. Thanks for the insight on an iconic beer.

I used Willamettes in place of Goldings and it still turned out well. When I can Get some Goldings I will give it another try. Solid recipe.

I know this is an old thread but it does have corn in it. It also has just a hint of roasted barley, maybe 1/2 - 1 oz. in 5 gallons.

The IBU's are also way too high. It should probably be around 20.
