I'd love to hear what you all think of this recipe. It's now conditioning in secondary, so I can't change it, but I'd still love to hear initial thoughts. Thanks!
Wee Heavy Ale - 5.5gallon batch
11.25lb Golden Promise
1.25lb Smoked Golden Promise (home smoked over alder, not very strong)
.5lb Roasted Barley
1.5oz Fuggles for 45min
.5oz Fuggles for 10min
.5oz Fuggle for 5 min
Wyeast Scottish Ale yeast - 1728 in a 2qt starter
Mashed with 19qt water at 152deg for 60min
Sparged at 172deg
Boiled 6.5g down to 5.5g
I carmelized about 1 gallon of first runnings in the stockpot until it was very dark but not burnt.
OG: 1.076
FG: 1.023
Fermented for 10 days at 66deg
Secondary for 21 days at 56deg
Plan on conditioning for 2-3 months
any thoughts?
Thanks,
Greenspey
