I would make it into a extract and grain recipe.Take out the 2 lbs. of DME.And add 6 lbs. of German Gold Extract from W.B., 1/2-1 lb. of lactrose at the 15 min. mark of the boil and use a pouch of simplicity to bottle prime with.And PATIENTS!!!I wouldn't even open a bottle until it was at least...
I was hoping for more replys to this thread.Some of the American ones are a whole % point off (alpha acids)from the European ones.I guess a good rule of thumb would be to use European for mild authentic European beers and use the American version if you want a stronger slightly citrusy flavor.
