Awhile ago I got this idea "beer by the caliber" when I accidentally created a recipie that turned out 7.62% and 51 IBUS. I realized that was the metric for a .308 caliber rifle. I don't remember the recipie cause it was just random left over stuff I was throwing together but that got me thinking there might be something to this. and so I created this for the 30-06, which would be 7.62% and 64 IBUS. (recipie is for one gallon)
2 lbs Maris Otter
.17 lb Crystal 30
.16 lb Victory
.25 lb Belgian Candi Sugar
3.7 g Chinook @60
2.8 g Chinook @45
3.4 g Chinook @5
2.8 g Chinook @ 0
5 g Nottingham yeast
I don't usually measure hops in grams but the scale that measure ounces by the tenths and hundredths was non functional so had to improvise.
this turned out better than I was hoping, exactly like an old style English IPA, which ive been trying to do since I first started brewing so definently a success
