I am not a big APA guy, prefer german beers and darker beers like stouts and brown ales so this is NEW territory for me.
I would like to make an APA for going away party for a buddy of mine (he and most of his friends love APA's) who is relocating (due to job) to the East Coast.
I am looking for simple and a little on the sweet side for an APA. Here is what I came up with:
8.5 # 2-row
1.5 # Crystal 60L
1.5# Honey Malt
Any input or suggestions? Also, I have no idea what hops to use with the above grain bill or hop schedule. I would prefer only using a single hop but I have no problem using 2 different ones if that would make this APA better.
Thanks everyone. ..... Cheers! ..... Ed
