Hey guys,
As a recent Vermont transplant my beer availability has changed exponentially for the better. I've come to love edward and ephraim but my wallet has not. I know these are somewhat different beers, however, they have these things in is common:
-The mash profiles are extremely light and simple. Nothing fancy at all. I wouldn't be surprised at all if they were both single malt bills.
-They have overwhelming hop flavor with incredible complexity (pine, passionfruit, citrus, everything!) but little to almost no bitterness on the tongue.
I'm honestly not looking to clone these beers as I realize that takes a masterful grasp of the craft of brewing. However, I am wondering if anyone can help me create a recipe that gets somewhat close in regards to those two qualities.
Here is what I was thinking so far.
5 Gallons:
#10lb 2 Malt Pale (Maybe as light as a Pilsner malt)
.5 oz Cascade (60 Minutes)
.5oz Cascade (Dry Hop)
.5oz Citra (Dry Hop)
Single infusion mash @152
Appreciate any help as I'm probably pretty far off here. Never made a recipe before, kind of just guessing.
