I was lucky enough to recently get a pound of Cascade (4.6% AA) pellets and, as a home brew beginner, I want to use them in a SMaSH to get an idea of their flavor/aroma. I'd appreciate any comments/advice regarding this recipe, which is sort of shooting for a blonde ale (I think):
2 lb Extra Light Dry Extract
4 lb Extra Light Dry Extract (late addition)
1 oz Cascade 60 minutes
.75 oz Cascade 15 minutes
.75 oz Cascade 0 minutes
SafAle English Ale yeast (S-04)
estimates from Beer Smith:
OG: 1.052
FG: 1.014
ABV: 5.06%
IBU: 20.4
SRM: 3.6
ferment @ 60° F
keg with 14 PSI @ 38° F (2.8 volumes CO2)
So, will this suck? Worth making? Thanks for any advice you have.
