I brewed another batch today, but switched to maris otter in lieu of 2 row and upped the briess cherrywood smoked malt from 5% to 40% of the grain bill. rounded out with some black malt
Maris Otter/Apollo SmaSH.
Thoughts on Apollo? I've always been curious to do a Magnum smash.
I am enjoying it. The aroma is mostly pine and resin with a citrus undertone leaning towards grapefruit. The flavor is much the same. I was worried it would turn out catty with Apollo being 18.4% but it isn't at all. It's one of my favorite SMaSHs so far.
A fine looking brew...how's the taste? Good I bet! A pale ale of some sort?
My second lager attempt... 3 weeks grain to glass in the pic....Cant see how it will get better with time....Crispness
Pilsner malt/rice/corn..34/70 yeast
Hmmmm...looks crispy...would you be so rotten as to post your grain bill...or should I contact Sid Vicious?

Sure:
10# pilsner malt (because they come in 10# bags)
4# 2 row
3#flaked rice
1# flaked corn
I think I went 1 oz saaz and 1 oz hallertau hops both @60 Around 10 IBU total
34/70 yeast
I did the same exact batch before with all rice and think the corn adds a little to the flavor and color..all rice was watery lookin
This is for a 12 gallon batch
You want 80% grain
20% rice/corn
Real simple real good
First batch of the year and first 10 Gallon attempt
Left was fermented warm at 75F beer temp.
Right was fermented at 65F beer temp.
So what's the difference in flavor profile?
Sunshine clone 2.0.
That looks awesome. Mind sharing the recipe?
The first one is a session ipa I brewed in a local brewery as prize for winning a contest, the second one is a hopped saison, single hop "sorachi ace", a dill bomb
