Hello HBT,
I'm Looking to do a summer ale (hopefully summer comes this year). I'd like to hop burst it (mostly) with citrus forward hops.
I was thinking:
6 gallons, assuming 80% efficiency.
6 lbs pale ale malt
3 pounds wheat
8 oz English light crystal (45l)
1/2 oz magnum bittering
1/2 oz Citra at 15
1 oz Eldorado at 10
1 oz Pacifica at 5
Dry hop 1oz El Dorado
Mash at 152 for 60
60 minute boil
Wlp001
Possible additions:
Gains of paradise
Lemon zest to boil
What do you think? Crazy? Off balance? Tell me your thoughts! (Please)
