I'm pretty new to the whole recipe creation bit, but I haven't found an English barley wine recipe that strikes me as being quite what I want. I'm aiming for a copper colored, full bodied barley wine that's malty and sweet with enough spicy bitterness to still be balanced. I can only mash about 10-12 pounds of grain, so I'm doing a partial. Here's what I've come up with using beer calculus:
Ingredients:
6 lbs pale extract
8 lbs Two-row pale
1 lb Munich
1 lb Crystal 60L
0.5 lb Cara-pils
1 oz Magnum, 14 AAU - 60 min
0.5 oz Tomahawk, 16 AAU - 60 min
0.5 oz Tomahawk - 15 min
0.5 oz Chinook, 13 AAU - 15 min
1 oz Chinook - 1 min
1.5 oz Chinook - dry hop in secondary
Yeast is a cake of WLP007 from an English brown that's finishing up as I type.
Estimates
OG - 1.112
FG - 1.028 (hopefully a little lower with the big starter)
Color - 13 SRM
IBU - About 70
ABV - 11.2%
