In about a year my sister will be getting married and of course that means I get to brew the beer! I've got about a year to develope a recipe, and I'd like to do something with a little smoke to it since the groom's last name is Woods.
I think it shouldn't be a heavy smoke and my most popular style I've shared with family is Oktoberfest. I would kind of like to add some rye just to introduce even more complex flavors. I'm thinking I can use cherrywood instead of beechwood smoked malt because it isn't as harsh. I have a lagering fridge so that's no issue. Here's what I have so far:
Any thoughts or suggestions?
