I'm trying to put together a hoppy red ale. Most American reds tend to be higher gravity beers, but I'd like to keep mine at session strength. Think Irish Red drinkability, with American Red hoppiness.
I've been thinking up a recipe. It's sort of all over the place, so bear with me.
Tell me what you think:
Fermentables
3.3lbs Amber LME
3.3lbs Extra Light LME
6oz Caramel 80L
3oz Special B malt
2oz Roasted Barley
Hops
1oz Cascade (5.5 AAU) @ 60 min
.5oz Cascade (5.5 AAU) @ 10 min
.5oz Centennial (10 AAU) @ 10 min
.5oz Cascade (5.5 AAU) @ flameout
.5oz Centennial (10 AAU) @ flameout
1oz Centennial (10 AAU) Dry Hop
Yeast
US-05
OG: 1.048
IBU: 29.8
SRM: 15
