Alright, so planning a 10-gallon batch with a buddy, he's thinking a Killian's-type red ale would be nice and tasty. Picking up ingredients today. I'm thinking, for grain, some pale malt, a good amount of Munich, some crystal 60, maybe some carapils, and a pinch of roasted barley for color.
Hops - I'm not so sure about. What would be appropriate for the style? I know it's a flexible style, and I don't care about making a CLONE, but I'd like to be in the right neighborhood at least. Stick to traditional noble varieties? The only recipes I've seen call for Chinook/Cascade, which doesn't strike me as right (although it's been a while since I've had Killian's).
Help?
