I so have made a couple attempts at a low bitter / high aroma NEIPA, but have fallen short on the aroma department. The beers tasted great though. So being my 3rd attempt, I decided to go all in. I am going for a NEIPA style in essence, but someone may better classify the beer. My prior recipes were heavy on oats with 3lb flaked oats and 1lb white wheat, but I found the beer would settle clear... my wheat beers don't clarify so that's why I am trying more wheat and less oats. I also previously used TYB Vermont, but again, not sure if should change up the yeast. I have Voss Kviek, TYB Vermont, TYB Midwestern on hand. Voss Kviek stays hazy and has nice citrus notes, so thought that might be fun to try.
Grain Bill for 6 gallon batch, Planned mash @ 154° x 60
#10 2-row
#4 White Wheat
#1 Caramel 40
#1 Flaked Oats
#12oz Carapils
Hops:
El Dorado 1oz @ 30 Minutes (Boil)
El Dorado 1 oz @ 180° x 30 Minutes Whirlpool
El Dorado 1 oz @ 160° x 30 Minutes Whirlpool
Simcoe 1 oz Cryo Dry Hop Day 3
Mosaic 1 oz Cryo X Dry Hop Day 5
Citra 1 oz Cryo x Dry Hop Day 7.
Will crash and keg around day 10.
Should be around OG 1.074, but am considering #1 dextrose too which would make it 1.084
Bitterness target is 40 IBU's as that seemed to be a crowd pleaser from prior batches.
Looking forward to any and all criticism, although the grain bill is already ground so I cannot make changes aside from adding more or less oats.
