Greetings,
Made a last minute decision to brew something different this weekend for fathers day. Recently had Trillium's sprang (Kolsch) and really like the flavor profile. But with current New England weather, i dont think ill be able to sustain the temps for a kolsch. So i figured i'd try to modify a cream ale to get something similar. What does everyone think, any input would be greatly appreciated?
Type: All Grain
Style: Cream Ale (modified)
Boil Time: 60 min
Batch Size: 5 gallon, hopefully
ESTIMATED STATS:
Original Gravity: 1.046
Final Gravity: 1.010?
ABV: 4.7
IBU: 20.2
SRM: 5.7
FERMENTABLES:
15 lbs Pilsner (2 Row)
2 lbs Rye Malt
1 lbs Barley, Flaked
1 lbs Sugar, Table (Sucrose)
HOPS:
0.75 oz Golding, U.S. [5.00 %] - Boil 60.0 min
1.00 oz Nelson Sauvin [12.00 %] - Boil 5.0 min
0.50 oz Citra [12.00 %] - Boil 5.0 min
0.50 oz Citra [12.00 %] - Boil 1.0 min
0.50 oz Nelson Sauvin [12.00 %] - Boil 1.0 min
YEAST:
Not really sure yet, maybe WLP060 since i have it on hand.
My goal was to get a crisp lawnmower, but maintain some of that rye spice and fruity/winey finish i got from sprang.
Thanks
