I know that Papazian says that you can brew lager recipes using ale yeasts and vice versa, but I've been afraid to try this. I'd really like to brew a pilsner, but I'm only set up to brew ales using malt extract.
What would, say, a recipe for a pilsner be like if I used ale yeast instead of lager yeast? It would obviously have to be fermented at ale temperatures, which might bring out more ester flavors... But... give it a try?
