Hi all,
So far I've brewed:
Breiss' "Hoppy to be Gluten Free" beer.
A dark GF beer that bluffwallace shared with me.
Two versions of the "wit" that philrose posted.
I was trying to come up with a good recipe for a dark, high ABV beer. After more questions than answers popped up during my quest, I decided I'm not quite ready for that.
I just saw DKershner's post for a GF Belgian Double:
And it sounds like exactly what I was looking for. I have yet to use brown rice syrup, so it sounds like a good time to start.
Anyone have any suggestions to add to or modify? I'm going to be placing an order soon.
I do have some buckwheat, qunioa, and millet sitting around. I toasted some of that (not malted) for the dark recipe and it seemed to really take care of a lot of the sorghum "off" flavor.
Thanks a bunch!

I will make a starting idea and hopefully others will show up and add their input.
8.5lb Brown Rice Syrup
1lb Sorghum Syrup
1lb Dark Candi Syrup (160SRM)
.75oz Magnum @ 60min
.5oz Tettnang @ 10min
WLP500 w/ appropriate starter size - make the starter out of sorghum syrup and water instead of DME (this will cause a very, very minor amount of gluten to be in the final beer, but there is no replacement for chimay yeast, do not use Wyeast 1214, it has much more gluten)
4tsp Yeast Nutrient @ fermentor
.5tsp Irish Moss @ Boil
Ferment @ 66F
Prime with a little less sugar than usual.
