Kicking around the idea of brewing a real simple pale ale. Just wanted some quick thoughts:
10 pounds Maris Otter
.5 pound Gambrinus Honey Malt
2 to 3 ounces of East Kent Goldings
I'd like a slightly sweet, nutty flavor, with medium bitterness. I really want to keep the grain bill simple, with at most three grains (with the focus on the Maris Otter). Any thoughts on adding just a bit of another specialty grain, and what type of yeast would you go with (I've been using liquid, but would like to try a good dry yeast). Thanks.
