So after a couple years of overdoing it on IPA's, I've really been trying to re-introduce myself to some of the other great styles out there. I picked up some Gordon Biersch Marzen and reminded myself of how much I used to love that beer. So naturally I decided I need to brew my own version of the style. This is what I have come up with so far...
3.25 lb Pilsner (2 Row) Ger (2.0 SRM) Grain 35.14 %
3.25 lb Vienna Malt (3.5 SRM) Grain 35.14 %
2.00 lb Munich Malt (9.0 SRM) Grain 21.62 %
0.50 lb Caramunich Malt (56.0 SRM) Grain 5.41 %
0.25 lb Carafa I (337.0 SRM) Grain 2.70 %
1.00 oz Hallertauer Mittelfrueh [4.00 %] (60 min) Hops 14.0 IBU
0.50 oz Hallertauer Mittelfrueh [4.00 %] (20 min) Hops 4.3 IBU
1 Pkgs Bavarian Lager (Wyeast Labs #2206) [Starter 2000 ml] Yeast-Lager
This would put me at an OG of 1.055,18 IBU's & and an SRM of 14.3(Too dark?). I would probably ferment at 50* for 7-10 days, let it warm up for a d-rest & then lager for a couple months.
Never having brewed this style, I would love to have y'all's input.
Thanks in advance
