Im needing a new session beer. Something I can drink all day. Something in the 100 calorie (per 12 ounce) range, but full of flavor. Something the chics will dig.
I have a pound of 7.5% Sterling hops being delivered today from Fresh hops. (Aroma: Herbal, Spicy, some floral and citrus hints Substitutions: Saaz, Polish Lublin)
I already have nearly 20 gallons of highly hopped Pale Ales (Kona, Bridgeport, My Own Recipe) ten gallons of Jamils Mild Brown, Some Irish Stout, a 5.8% American Wheat, a keg of Ole Speckled Hen and a low hopped house ale for my BMC friends.
Now I need to get another true session beer on tap. Something around 3%. Lightly hopped but with some spice and floral aroma. A bit of zest to make it refreshing and different. A light grain bill (pils, #10, cara) for a bright beer.
Im thinking Sterling Gold.
