Hi all!
A friend and I started brewing not too long ago and after following a few recipes and reading through the John Palmer book, we decided to venture into making our own recipe. There were a couple issues we ran into along the way during brewing that need not be discussed, but anyway, the beer came out with 0 flavor. Our first recipe and our first pour out batch
Anyway, I think I know what could have gone wrong but we really want to rebrew it after correcting our mistakes. First, I want to check-in here to see if there is anything obviously stupid about the recipe or if the mistakes we made in the brewing process really were the cause of such a terrible beer. Here it is:
Yeast:
London Ale or White Labs WLP001
Fermentables Qty
Cara-Pils (crushed) 4 oz
Honey Malt (Crushed) 8 oz
Wild Flower Honey 3 lbs
Pale Malt (LME) 3.3 lbs
Amber Malt (DME) 1.0 lbs
Golden Light (DME) 1.5 lbs
Target OG: ~1.069
Hops
Qty(oz) Time
Galena 1.3 60min
Cascade 1.0 30min
Amarillo 0.5 30min
Cascade 0.5 15min
Amarillo 1.0 15min
Fuggle 1.0 Dry
Cascade 0.5 Dry
Thanks and
