I'm making a hoppy brown tomorrow and looking for some advice on a water profile. We've got really clean water here, so pretty much any profile is fair game. I use Bru'n Water so if anyone has a recommendation on a pre-defined profile to use, I'm all ears. I considered the 3 brown ale profiles, but none are meant for a 75-80IBU brown ale.
Anyone? Here's the recipe...
