Hey guys Im thinking about making an amber ale and need a little guidance.

Here is the proposed recipe.

10 Maris
3 Munich
1 Crystal 60
2 oz Chocolate

columbus additons
0.25 @ 60
0.75 @ 20
1 @ flameout
1 dry hop

Mash at 154-156

I have bulk columbus and simcoe, just made a simcoe/maris smash that is fermenting so figure should try an all columbus. Any ideas or direction would be great. I currently am drinking a troegs hopback clone from BYO, it is great tasting not too hoppy but I think could be a little more on the sweet side.

That recipe used
10 pilsner
2 munich
0.5 crystal
2 oz chocolate

1 nugget @ 60
0.5 each nugget/simcoe/liberty @ 0

thinking this new recipe will have similar bitterness but more sweet/bready taste.
 
Looks delicious to me! Waht yeast? I love US-05 for things like this.

If fact, I may just have to do something like this next weekend! Great idea, thanks :rockin:
