I wanted to share a couple of recipes I just put in the orders for and will be trying out in the next few weeks. I was intrigued by a few reviews of Ahtanum hops, and haven't brewed with it before. I decided to do a couple of different brews with Ahtanum to get an idea of its profile and to see how gravity and hop volume can affect the hop flavor in beers. First I will brew a DIPA and then I'll brew a sessionable pale ale. Here are the notional recipes:
DIPA:
14# 2-Row
1# Victory
.75# C-80L
2oz Magnum @ 60min
1oz Ahtanum @ 30min
1oz Ahtanum @ 15min
1oz Ahtanum @ 0min
1oz Ahtanum @ dry hop 5 days
WLP090 San Diego Super
Mash 90min @ 148-150F, batch sparge
Session Ale:
8# 2-row
.75# Victory
.5# C-80L
.5oz Magnum @ 60min
.75oz Ahtanum @ 30min
.75oz Ahtanum @ 15min
.75oz Ahtanum @ 0min
.75oz Ahtanum @ dry hop 5 days
WLP001 California Ale Yeast
Mash 75min @ 152-154F, batch sparge
Anybody have any good, bad or ugly experiences with Ahtanum? How do these look?
