the other day I had a beer from a local brewery that I loved. They advertised it as a Amber Cream Ale "A unique brew that is a perfect marriage of amber and cream ale. Hints of caramel and toasted malt lead to a silky smooth finish". I really want to brew a similar beer of my own. I'm stuck on the grain bill though. I've never brewed a Cream Ale...so I'm not to familiar with the style. The only thing I know about it is...it's a light colored beer mostly made from 2 row or 6 row as base malt & maize is used in the grain bill. I also know the yeast used is usually a blend between a lager & ale yeast. here"s the recipe I came up with
8lbs 2-row
1lb Flake corn
1lb Vienna
0.5lb Caramel/Crystal 40
0.5oz Cascade 60mins
1oz Willamette 5mins
White Labs WLP080 Cream Ale
Does this recipe look good for what I'm trying to achieve with this brew or has anyone ever tried brewing something similar & have a recipe? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks!!
