Hey Guys,
Being a glutton for punishment (because I don't have enough recipes), I am looking to brew a Kona Longboard Island Lager type beer. Truth be told, a buddy brought some over and the SWMBO liked it (for me it was middle of the road and nothing special). Anyway, since she is not a "beer drinker" and had a few of these, I would like to give it a shot.... The beer.....
I see from their website they use:
And these are the numbers they provide:
Using my 15 gallon kettle and brewing a 5 gallon batch, I figure 9lbs of 2-Row and 1lb Wheat Malt, and Czech Pilsner Lager yeast (WL2278) should give me a good base (1.050), but I am completely lost trying to get those four hops to blend to 20 IBU. Any help is appreciated!
