What it is HBT,
I made a 5gl batch of APA from Brewing Classic Styles and used .75lbs of caramunich instead of munich....I know, rookie move! At first i didnt think much of it but thought the brew was a little dark and after some digging around here it was clarified that "cara" is crystal and munich is a base malt. So beit, the brew has been brewed and according to BrewPal it's looking like a ESB or an IPA, completely skipping anything Pale Ale, so my question is...
Would dry hopping it give it more APAness, and am i simply looking at a slightly sweeter/maltier beer by using caramunich?
Thanks,
