- Nice pale color, slightly hazy, bitter from the rye but softened by the biscuit malt
8lbs Pale Malt 2 row (Briess)
2lbs Biscuit
2lbs Rye Malt
4.5 gallons Strike Water at 170 degrees, mash between 155 and 153 for 1 hour.
Batch sparge with 3 gallons at 170 degrees.
boil 1 hour
Hops - Centennial 1oz @45 min
Summit 1oz @30 min
Centennial 1oz @15 min
Karsten Brothers Brewing first attempt at a beer that tastes like a nice, dry, rye toast. Added approximately 3 tablespoons of fresh, ground caraway seeds to the secondary fermenter, but didn't want overpowering caraway so bottled after just a week in secondary. Wonderful sweet and slightly liquorice aroma from the seeds just puts this beer over the top
