Has anyone ever tried this? I think an AWA with a little more punch--maybe 6.5-7.0) would be great, but can't find any examples.
Absolutely! I’ve made them up to 8% with 40 ibu’s. I do like late hops and whirlpool hops to keep the bitterness a bit lower but still have a big nose of hops.
I've brewed a slightly scaled down version of this (using up some leftover ingredients). With a smaller grain bill, and hop additions scaled accordingly, that finished at 5.5. With the full grain bill, this would be in your desired range.
8 lbs German Pils
4 lbs White Wheat
Mash 60 min @152
1 oz Citra @60 min
1/2 oz Cascade @10 min
1/2 oz Cascade @0 min
Ferment with US-05
1.066 OG
1.014 FG
6.79 ABV
41 IBU
My scaled down version looked like this a couple of days ago-
That is one beautiful beer!
Thanks much.
