What: Trying to make Beligum Golden Strong Ale with hint of Honey and Orange.
So I did some research and right now I am just trying to understand the ingredients and how to purchase the correct amounts. New to brewing...my disclaimer.
So I found a recipe that sounds pretty good but seemed like a lot to make 5gal batch.
Grains/Fermentables
15lb of Belgium Pilsner
1.25lb of Corn Sugar
Hops
1.25 oz Styrian Goldings for 60 mins
Yeast
Special yeast from friend. From Lost rhino
What I feel like I am missing in this recipe is the orange and honey. So I found some BrewersBest orange peel on LabelPeelers but not sure as to how much I might need. As well, I am not sure how to get the correct honey taste.
What I am shooting for is a slight bitterness when it first hits the tongue but then was down with the honey and orange flavor and I chose the strong ale because I would like this to be in the 7-8% alc percentage. Its for the summer time so why not give it a little kick.
All help is greatly appreciated. All comment wills be taken into consideration.
