Brewing this afternoon, one day late on the Nat. Homebrew Day deal, but I was otherwise occupied. Below is my recipe, mixed and matched from a few others hanging around these parts AND what was available from the local LHS. I try to support the local guy but it's aggravating when they don't have BASIC ingredients (no DME??).
1.5 lbs German Honey Malt (crushed & steeped)
5.5 lbs Lt DME
0.5 oz Centennial (9.4%) 60 min
1.0 oz Cascade (7.4%) 15 min
0.5 oz Coriander seed - 10 min
2g Grains of Paradise - 10 min
2 oz (+/-) Lemon zest - 10 min
Wyeast American Ale II (1272)
Any comments? Suggestions on zest amount? Looking for a lt summer beer.
Various calcs show approx values as: 9 SRM, 25 IBU, 5.1% ABV
