Well,
I like to brew - but have never even made a real attempt at 'making' a recipe. I much prefer to find recipes of beers I enjoy and create them myself. That said I don't have a strong knowledge of what goes with what, and what makes up a 'good recipe'. I wanted something that had a touch of sweet, a touch of smoke, and a nice clean basic flavor.
I tried my hand at creating this, but wanted to get some opinions on it:
5 Gal. Batch Size
Style: American Pale Ale
5lbs Pale Malt (2 row)
2lbs Vienna Malt
1lb Corn, Flaked
1lb Honey Malt
1lb Smoked Malt
1.5 oz. Hallertauer (60 mins)
1.0 oz. Centennial (15 mins)
Any feedback would be appreciated. I figured the corn would 'tone down' the smoke & honey to make it more of an afterthought, and that that particular combo of hops would give a nice aroma & decent clean flavor. If I'm way off - let me know! Sorry in advance if this recipe is horrible
