I am trying to design a low ABV sessionish pale ale with a lot of hop aroma and flavor. So far this is what I have come up with:
70% efficiency
6.5 gallon batch
Grain
6 lbs 2 row
2.5 lbs munich
1.5 lbs white wheat
.5 lbs Cry 60L
.35 lbs Aromatic malt
Hops
1 oz Palisade at 25min
1 oz Crystal at 15 min
1 oz Glacier at 5 min
Also may bea flame out addition as well depending on what i find in the brew shop.
Yeast
1056
Mash around 156-58 for 45 mins and the normal 60 min boil
OG around 1.038
Should be about 3.6%
25 IBUs
I am uncertain of the hops as I have never used them. I generally stick to the usual C hops and occasionally some noble hops for the Hefes. I want to branch out and try some other varieties. Has any one used these or have any other combos that they really enjoy?
I chose the grain bill because I wanted a little more complexity, not sure if it is complex enough or if it is too complex. Any ideas on both hops and grain would be much appreciated.
Thanks
