I'll be making a smoked beer again for this winter. I don't have my Beersmith in front of me, but it's about 1.066, roughly half Rauchmalt, with a few pounds of Peat Smoked, base malt to top off gravity, and some Crystal to about 20 SRM overall. Then maybe 15 IBU of something like Willamette. I'm thinking of adding a few pounds of Rye to it. Thoughts?
Sometimes I like to make silly experiments and then have to struggle through five gallons of meh. I'd rather just make a good one, but I'm thinking Rye could add a nice dimension. Unfortunately, I don't see much evidence of many smoked rye beers, so maybe it's not a great idea.
