So I have been wanting to make a Rye Red ale for a while and I'm thinking it would be a great addition to a thanks giving celebration ale.
Here's what I come up with. The hops are what I've got in the freezer. Do you think they will go well with this grain bill?
Estimated OG: 1.064 (60% BH efficiency)
Estimated FG: 1.016 (aprox 6.5% ABV)
IBUs: 70
SRM: 11.9
Thanksgiving Celebration Ale
10 lb American 2 row
1.5 lb American Rye
1.5 lb Cara Red
1 lb Crystal 60
1 lb corn sugar
60 min .5 oz Summit 18.5 aau
30 min .5 oz Summit 18.5 aau
5 min .5 oz Citra 11 aau
5 min El Dorado 15.7 aau
Northwest Ale Yeast
Mash at 153 for 60 min. Sparge as usual. Boil for 60 minutes following above hop schedule. Cool to 65 and ferment between 65 68 F.
What do you guys think about the hops? I like trying to use unique hops in unique beers but I am really not that familiar with these.
Thank you!
