Ive never had one but it sounds good.
Id read where the Anchor is a bit more malty than SNPA and Im looking for something like that to brew. I have the BYO recipe for Anchor and it looks pretty simple.
Is it reasonable to say this beer falls somewhere between a hoppy APA and an Oktoberfest? Or am I whacked? The only difference (probably a big one) is that I would pitch a California Ale yeast instead of a lager.
Heres a base recipe:
Batch Size: 11.00 gal
Boil Size: 12.00 gal
Estimated OG: 1.053 SG
Estimated Color: 9.4 SRM
Estimated IBU: 32.7 IBU
Brewhouse Efficiency: 73.0 %
Boil Time: 60 Minutes
Ingredients:
------------
Amount Item Type % or IBU
20.00 lb Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 90.9 %
2.00 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L (60.0 SRM) Grain 9.1 %
2.00 oz Northern Brewer [7.50%] (60 min) Hops 24.3 IBU
1.00 oz Northern Brewer [8.50%] (20 min) Hops 8.3 IBU
0.50 oz Northern Brewer [8.50%] (0 min) Hops -
Mashed at the higher range (156-158) for the maltier profile.
