Okay - my wife and I love Yuengling. Not the world's best beer, by most standards, but tasty, especially on hot days.
Regardless of our current snowed-in condition, I am going to attempt a Yuengling clone. I have scoured the web via Google, and located more than a few attempts. Below, I have done a combo of those recipes, and would love feedback from more experienced brewers.
Total boil - 5 gallons
5 lbs Pilsner Malt
3.5 lbs American 6 row malt
.75 lbs American Caramel malt (60 degree)
1.5 lbs corn grits
Mash 60 mins at 149 degrees
1 oz Cascade Hops - 60 mins
1 oz Cluster hops - 15 mins
1 oz Cluster hops - 5 mins
California Lager 2112 yeast or WLP800 Pilsner Lager
Thoughts? Rec's?
This would be my first mashed brew. If I wanted to go extract, how would that work? I also saw a recommendation for replacing the grits with rice syrup or organic rice cereal.
