Any leads on such a thing? Anyone brewed one?
My recent successes have been British styles (usually 4% ABV, +/- 1; mild, best,...) and an American rye that I really loved. So I figured, why not do both at once?
Taking a recent successful Best Bitter and subbing in 2lb of malted rye for the same amount of 2-row gives:
6.5lb US 2-row
2lb malted rye
8oz crystal 80L
2oz chocolate wheat
60min boil with:
1oz EKG (30min)
1oz EKG (10min)
London ESB Ale yeast (WY1968)
(OG 1.044, 21 IBU, 4.1% ABV)
Terrible idea? Are there better ways to cross the streams?
