I am craving easy-drinking brown to dark beers at the moment, and although I have got a brown ale fermenting with burton ale wlp023 at the moment, I'm kind of wanting to try out the brown porter style. I was thinking somehting along the lines of this:
10 Liters, 1046 OG, 1013 FG, 4.4 ABV, 23.5 IBU
83% Maris Otter
06% Chocolate malt UK (around 880 EBC)
04% Crystal 120L
04% Crystal 80L
04% Crystal 60L
6g Mandarina Bavaria FWH
6g Mandarina Bavaria 15 min boil
Burton Ale wlp023
What do you guys think? About the mandarina bavaria hops, I do like citrus and chocolate flavor together so I hope it will work out. And about the Burton yeast, do you think it will work? Haven't tried it myself yet, but white labs' page says it's excellent for porters and stouts, althought quite fruity.
Thanks!
Edit: I am also considering pitching some Brett WLP645 with the normal yeast. This brett strain was isolated from some english stock beer apparently, so it'd make for an interesting experiment. That could although make the easy-drinking part of it go away.
