I'd love some assistance coming up with something awesome.
I have just entered a homebrew competition at a local brewery. It's an audition for a pro-am of sorts. It will be an onsite brew in their parking lot. Limited to 40 entrants.
Conditions:
Bring your own equipment.
They provide as much milled base 2-row as needed
Bring any specialty grains I want. NOTE: I LOVE RYE
There will be a mill available for me to use onsite
They provide pre-heated water (to shorten brew times)
Must use their yeast (fresh, large pitches)
option 1: 1056/001
option 2: custom blend house saison (expect 90%att)
Must use hops from their stock, including dry-hops:
Columbus
Chinook
US Brewers Gold
Czech Saaz
French Strisselspalt
US Northern Brewer
Key notes:
No style limitations. They also don't care if it's 6% or 12%, I generally like to brew in the 7-8% range, but I'm open.
I'm cool with crazy IBUs. I like the enamel stripped off my teeth.
5G or 10G recipe.
I'd prefer to brew 10G, unless I go above 1.075 or so. I have a 48qt cooler MT
I avg right at 77% brewhouse efficiency
BK will be my keggle
The winner will get to brew the recipe with them @30bbl size.
