Being 90* plus in the shade for the next 6 months here in Florida, I want to make something light and drinkable, like a Pale Ale. EdWorts Haus Pale Ale looks like a good fit. I have a supply of Chinook hops that I’d like to use, so I was wondering if substituting the Cascade hops for Chinooks would work, as I have no idea what an only Chinook Pale Ale would taste like. Ran it through BeerSmith, reducing the hop additions to lower the IBU’s a bit.
8.00 lb Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM)
2.00 lb Vienna Malt (3.5 SRM)
0.50 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 10L (10.0 SRM)
0.75 oz Chinook [11.50 %] (60 min)
0.25 oz Chinook [11.50 %] (30 min)
0.25 oz Chinook [11.50 %] (15 min)
0.25 oz Chinook [11.50 %] (5 min)
1 Pkg SafAle American Ale US-05
Est Original Gravity: 1.048 SG
Est Final Gravity: 1.014 SG
Estimated Alcohol by Vol: 4.47%
Bitterness: 31.3 IBU
Est Color: 4.6 SRM
What do you think? Any advice would be appreciated.
