Hey guys,
I'm hoping to do this recipe tomorrow. I was hoping you might give me suggestions. I want a low alcohol beer (3-3.5%) with a decent amount of Citra hop flavor and aroma but balanced gravity-to-IBU ratio. Here is my proposed brew:
5 gal batch
Mash: 158 F
5 lb pale malt
1 lb crystel 60L
0.25 lb chocolate malt
Boil 60 min
0.5 oz Citra - 10 min
2.0 oz Citra - 2 min
1.5 oz Citra - Dry Hop 5-7 days
Est. OG: 1.036
Est. FG: 1.011
Est. ABV: 3.2%
IBU: 19.1
Est. IBU/SG: 0.536
Anyone see any issues with this recipe? Think it sounds like what I'm shooting for? I don't have a lot of leeway at this point besides to postpone the brew, but I don't suspect anything will be so drastic as to cause me to do so.
Thanks guys!
