I am looking for a good Pacifico clone recipe. Anyone have one to share?
This recipe shoud be close to Pacifico. I don't have the extract version. I had a pint at Pizza Port and thought it was close:
Amigo Mexican Lager
Recipe supplied by: Kirk McHale, Brewer, Pizza Port Brewing Co, Carlsbad, CA
Homebrew Recipe, makes 5 gallons (19L)
All Grain Version
Malt
3.4 lb Great Western 2-row malt
2 lb Great Western 6-row malt
3.3 lb Flaked Corn
Hops
0.5 oz Liberty hops: 60 min.
0.5 oz Liberty hops: At whirlpool
Yeast
White Labs WLP940, Mexican Lager Yeast
Ferment at 51-53 degrees F for 7 days, then let fermentation warm to 62-64 degrees F for 4-6 days for diacetyl rest, chill 5 degrees F a day until you reach desired lagering temperature (this beer was lagered for 6 weeks 31-32 degrees F). Fine with gelatin or isinglass to clarify, carbonate to 2.8 to 3.0. Serve at 38 degrees F with a lime.
Make sure to enjoy with your amigos.

I bought a vial of 940 for this purpose, but haven't brewed it yet. If you do- please post your results.
I'll gave it a shot. Will advise if the results. Thanks'
