Just brewed up an GF IPA for my Dad but he is really not liking it. It's to heavy and hoppy for his taste but I think it turned out great. So I'm trying to put a beer together that is Light and Low Cal/ Low carb for him. He's type two diabetic so when he does have a beer it's generally something really light. Here is the recipe I'm looking at GF light beer
3 lbs. malted buckwheat
1 cup corn sugar
1 oz. Saaz hops
2 oz. Hallertauer Hersbrucker hops
6 lb. rice syrup
1 pkg. ale yeast (EDME)
I'm thinking of cutting out the corn sugar and cutting back the rice syrup to keep the OG low and then use some Amylase Enzyme in the secondary to drop the FG to 1.000. If it turns out well this could be a good summer beer for myself as well. Any recomendations to the recipe I have linked?
Thanks,
Terry
