I'm thinking about doing a Honey Blonde tommorrow and I threw this recipe together:
5 lbs. Pilsner Malt (2-row)
4 lbs. Maris Otter
0.5 lbs. Honey Malt
2 lbs. Clover Honey (at 20 minutes boil)
1 oz. Hallertauer 60 min.
0.5 oz. Styrian Goldings 30 min.
0.5 oz. Styrian Goldings at flameout
Wyeast 1056 American Ale/Chico
IBU 24.4
SRM 4.7
OG 1.065
The IBUs are a bit low, but I don't want the bitterness to overpower the honey. Also, would I be better off splitting the honey between the boil and secondary?
