Tasting Notes

tasty pale ale

7# - Pale 2 row
3# - American Vienna
3# - Flaked Oats
1# - Munich 10

Mash at 149-50


1 oz Apollo at FO - 15 minute whirlpool
1 oz Denali at FO - 15 minute whirlpool
1 oz Citra at FO - 15 minute whirlpool
1 oz Citra Hopstand - 15 minutes at 150 degrees
1 oz Denali Hopstand - 15 minutes at 150 degrees
1 oz Apollo Hopstand - 15 minutes at 150 degrees

Dry hopped in keg 7 days with
2 oz Denali
1 oz citra

Then closed transfer to serving keg

I use the 27 x 9 cm hop filter (those screen tubes) in my kettle to eliminate most of the turb and hop mess that goes into my carboy.
I also stir quite a bit during the 15 minute whirlpool and the hopstand.
I Mash low to dry this out a bit, and combat the thin mouthfeel with the ridiculous amount of flaked oats.
I like the NE style IPA's but wanted something a little more subtle, and more balanced.

Oh, I like the look of that! I'll have to try that combination of hops. Thanks for the recipe!

I agree. I've never brewed with that much oats though. I want to try this for sure! Thank you as well. Just got to get me some Denali now (like the only hop I don't have, lol). I guess I could substitute WLP001, right?

Ya I'm sure WLP001 would work fine. I forgot to mention that I threw a healthy handful of rice halls in with the grain, to try and prevent a stuck sparge

Be careful with that Denali, especially late. It's a jacked up Nugget, and will overpower just about everything else this side of Citra. I was not a fan.
