Tasting Notes
Pine, Fruit
Hey all,
First recipe post here. This beer turned out great. Huge hoppy flavor with notes of pine and mild fruit on the front of the tongue. I missed my gravity by 10 points but i'm still dialing in my system. Supposed to hit around 1.078 so it's a bigger beer. SRM @ 13, IBU @ 96, ABV @ 8.6%

  • Ingredients:
  • 14.25 lbs. 2 Row pale malt
  • 1.2 lbs. crystal malt (i used 80 the recipe calls for 75)
  • 1.2 lbs. flaked barley
  • 4.2 AAU Centennial @ first wort
  • 3.75 AAU Sterling @ 60 min.
  • 9 AAU Nugget @ 60 min.

  • 3/4 cup priming sugar if bottling.
