Hello All.
So, here's the scenario. My brother and brewpartner is going to a NASCAR race in March. (don't ask me why, but his GF bought them tickets....) Of course, he wants to take a keg of homebrew with him that he can share with the other peeps going. Naturally the typical Nascar fan is a BMC drinker.... and naturally we are not....
SO, i have been looking for a recipe. One qualification I was looking for was something that uses Mt. Hood hops, since I just scored about 3 lbs of 'em.
I found this recipe on BeerSmith's recipe area. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Planning on brewing next Sunday, Feb 10.
I plan on using the the Cali Ale yeast as suggested at the bottom of the recipe. Will do my typical double batch sparge. I am considering upping the hops a little, as well.
