the goal is an easy drinking low alcohol IPA, but i figured since i already have an IPA why not make it a cascadian dark ale? I want something that doesn't taste too thin or without malt character, but is hop dominant.
Thoughts? Has anyone attempted a low alcohol IPA here? Also all malts will be mashed (roasted malts included), do you all think the level of roastedness will be right? Wont be brewing this for a while, so plenty of time to help me tweak this recipe.
OG: 1.036
IBU: 42
SRM: 25
ABV: ~3.4%
Grains:
3lb 2 row
1lb biscuit/victory malt
1lb crystal 40
1lb flaked barley
5oz chocolate malt
5oz black patent
Hops:
1oz Cascade @ 90 minutes
1oz Cascade @ 10 minutes
1oz Cascade @ 5 minutes
1oz Cascade dryhopped
(might change up aroma/dry hops, maybe some amarillo or cent)
Yeast:
something basic US-05 or wyeast 1056
