I'm about ready to brew up my first attempt at a Strong Ale - Winter Ale sort of thing. I'm looking for a balanced brew with malt, mild fruit and a hint of nuts flavors.
Here's what I've come up with:
Recipe for 3.5 gallons
Efficiency: 75%
OG: 1.066
FG: 1.019
ABV: 6.2%
IBU: 36
SRM: 19
Maris Otter Pale Ale Malt: 6.375 lb (76.7%)
American Munich (light): 11 oz (8.3%)
American Crystal 120L: 9 oz (6.8%)
American Crystal 20L: 9 oz (6.8%)
American Chocolate: 2 oz (1.5%)
Target 8%: .5 oz for 60 min. 26 IBU
Challenger 7%: .125 oz for 60 min 5.7 IBU
Bramling Cross 5%: .125oz for 15 min 2.0 IBU
EK Goldings 4.5%: .125 oz for 15 min 1.8 IBU
White Labs WLP004 Irish Ale yeast
What do you think?
