I have some DME that rarely gets used and decided to use it up on a small 4 gallon batch before it gets stale on me. I'm also using up some leftover hops that have been opened.
Not sure what style to shoot for, but here's what I came up with. Does this sound like it would make for a decent beer? The goal is something easy, quick & low maintenance.
Batch size = 4 gallons
Target OG = 1.047 (~ 4.5% ABV)
Target IBU = 31
2 lbs. 4 oz. Light DME (51%)
1 lb. 11 oz. Amber DME (38%)
0.5 lb. Honey (11%)
0.4 oz. Nugget 12%AA at 60 min.
0.5 oz. Cascade 6%AA at 40 min.
0.5 oz. Cascade 6%AA at 20 min.
Nottingham Dry Yeast
Boil all DME for 60 min. Add honey at 15 min. Ferment at 74F for 10 days then bottle.
