Hey All,
I've been poking around here for a while and finally feel like I'm worthy of posting a hello and a question. I started brewing all-grains straight out of the gate last September and have seven 5-gallon batches in various states of consumption. Right now, I've got an Imperial Amber Rye Saison in secondary that clocked in at 9.7 ABV.
I've gotten to a point where I want to build my own beer. I'm playing with a California common recipe and would like your thoughts and input.
10# American 2-row
2# Vienna
1# American Crystal (60)
8 oz. Victory Malt
4 oz. Light Chocolate malt (200 SRM)
1.5 ounce Northern Brewer (60 min) Bittering
.75 ounce Falconers Flight (30 min) Flavor
.75 ounce Falconers Flight (5 min) Aroma
1 t Irish moss (10 min)
Wyeast #2112
The thing I'm questioning is the use of Falconer's flight hops. I've dialed back from the 1.5 oz of cascade hops I had originally planned for bittering and aroma as I thought that might be too much for the style. What do y'all think?
Thanks for your time and input!
Tony
