- Nicely balanced flavor, with a little bit of a bite at the end.
8 lbs. Light LME
1/2 lb. Crystal
20 Serrano Chiles
2 oz. Centennial Hops
1 oz. Cascade Hops
Steep the grain until boiling. Halve the chiles, leaving the seeds. Boil the LME, chiles, and 1 oz. of the Centennial hops for 30 minutes. Add another ounce of Centennial and boil for another 15 minutes. Add the Cascade for the last 15 minutes of the boil.
Cool as usual, pour into the carboy while straining out the chiles and seeds, then pitch yeast.
Note: I decided to try one of the peppers when I had gotten them all out, which was almost a mistake. They are hot! During the boil, the aroma from the chiles was very interesting. I could feel my eyes wanting to tear, but not enough to actually do so, at least not until I actually ate one.
