Hi all,
I want to brew something a bit different, and my tastes run to malty, not so bitter session beers. I've seen references to a Biere de Printemps (spring beer) brewed in France. It is described as similar to a Märzen, which I like, but not quite as strong, less bitter, and darker. Right up my alley!
Here's the recipe I've come up with. If you have experience with this style, or just have opinions on whether this will do what I want, please let me know.
Cheers
For 11 gallons:
18 lb Dingeman's Munich II
1 lb Dingeman's Aromatic
0.5 lb Dingeman's Special B
0.25 lb Wyereman's Carafa I
1 oz Aramis hops, 8.1% AA 60 minute boil
1 oz Strisselspalt, 4% AA 10 min boil
Wyeast 3711- French Saison yeast
Single infusion mash 150 F
Batch sparge
90 minute boil
