So I just bottled my pumpkin porter and have my fermentor empty. I've been thinking about a good recipe that will take awhile to mellow out while I'm home for winter break. I really, really like Lagunitas Imperial Red especially for someone who doesn't usually care for more hoppy beers. So I came up with this recipe on beer calculus and hope it might come somewhat close, let me know what you guys think...
pounds oz
3 3 Light/Pale Malt Extract Syrup
3 0 Amber Dry Malt Extract
1 0 Light Dry Malt Extract
1 0 Weyermann CaraRed
1 0 American Crystal 60L
Time oz
60 1.0 Warrior
30 0.5 Cascade
0-5 0.5 Cascade
0-5 0.5 Spalt Spalter
So according to Beer Calculus that puts me at about 48 IBU and 6.4 ABV. For this recipe I'm really trying to get the color right since my first 2 brew's colors were off (hazy brown Belgian wit and dark brown porter). This recipe says its at 14 SRM, or copper to red which sounds perfect!
