- Clean and crisp with a nice hop bite.
This recipe was inspired by Biermunchers Centinal blonde a long time ago I brewed a batch and liked it. I tryed a few more of his recipes and liked those too. After that I began to desiging my own beers but I have to give a shout out to BM for getting me started on AG recipes.
I was looking through my old brews in Beersmith and decided to try a "heavier" version of Centinal Blonde, AKA higher ABV and IBU but maintaining a similar bitterness ratio. It is the upper limit of an APA but the lower limit of an IPA.
I replaced the cascade with Chinook because the LHBS was out. I shortened the boil some to keep the IBU's close. I replaced the the 10L and carapils with an equal amount of Munichs Caramalt 12L because I had never used this malt before and was curious. I think the malt flavour was similar.
