I'm playing around in beer alchemy, and trying to come up with a brown ale, since I want to start trying to come up with my own recipes. I want to make an american brown ale, and I came up with something that fits all the style guidelines, but I'm pretty new to this whole thing, so tell me what you guys think. Maybe I'm way off here, i don't know. I guess we'll find out.
Fermentables:
8.00 lbs US 2-row malt
1.00 lb US Caramel 20L Malt
0.50 lb US Chocolate Malt
0.50 lb Belgian Biscuit Malt
0.25 lb US Munich 20L Malt
0.25 lb US Flaked Rye
Hops:
0.25 oz Chinook 10.5% AA @ 60 minutes
0.50 oz Centennial 8.5% AA @ 30 minutes
0.50 oz Cascade 4.5% AA @ 10 minutes
Yeast:
Would Nottingham give me an english brown ale?
Would US-05 be better?
Single step mash at 150 degrees...
So am I way off here, or somewhere close? Thanks for the help, like I said I'm extremely new to making up recipes, and pretty new to the whole brewing scene, so any help is appreciated!!!
