Hi all. First post here so get your cannons loaded.
I just made, because of slight ordering/storage mistake, Bohemian Pilsner with 40% Weyerman Carapils Pilsner. What are your thoughts of the success of the bear? It's already ready but don't look below yet. Just think of it and give comments.
The beer had of course quite decent load of Saaz (6 g/l, not sorry for metric) with calculated IBUs of 32 as I was aiming for Bohemian type. IBUs was compensated with Magnum. Another specialty was to mash high (72 C) so the 0.23 kg/l beer ended up to be 5.5 % with ~90 % brew house efficiency.
I would say this ended up quite fine. Very malt forward type but not too much Crystal as someone would expect. Also the Saaz, which was very forward at the beginning, has tamed quite a bit after some storage. Actually, the only problem I have seen in this recipe is that there is too much ingredients. I would say that this type of doing a beer whith a high amounts of carapils + high mash temp would be a great way to do low abv% beers with great malty flavor. Of course waiting for your comments.
