I've never been a huge fan of British style ales, but thought I might as well give one a shot. I'll be brewing 7 gallons, and splitting it in half with two different yeast. One batch will get Wyeast 1099 (Whitbread) and the other will get 1332 (NW Ale). So far my grain/hop bill is as follows:
11lbs Palouse Pint English Pale Malt
3lbs Carared
6oz Crystal 80
4oz Simpsons DRC
60min: Willamette 1.5oz
15min: Hallertauer Mittelfrueh
02min: Hallertauer Mittelfrueh
Dry Hop: 1oz Hallertauer Mittelfrueh (still on the fence about this one)
Mash @ 150°
IBU: 25
Color: 13.3
Est ABV: 5.7%
I realize this is a bit of a mishmash in styles, but I think it could work. FWIW, I really really dislike WY1098 (British Ale) yeast, is 1099 a little too similar? Any other suggestions or thoughts?
