I am looking to brew a hazy pale ale for an upcoming work retreat. I am going for something in between a regular pale ale and a NEIPA. I'd like to retain a little malt character (hence the 5% crystal) and keep the bitterness lowish. I'm looking for something that most people will enjoy (including myself). I know most NEIPAs don't include crystal malts, whereas many standard pale ales do.
I've got some C-15 and C-75 to get rid of, which is why I chose those in lieu of C-60 or something else.
I've never made a hazy pale ale before, and was hoping for some input on grain bill and hop schedule. Thanks a lot in advance.
11 lbs 2-row (77.2%)
1 lb Flaked Oats (7%)
1 lb Wheat Malt (7%)
8 oz Carapils (3.5%)
8 oz C-15 (3.5%)
4 oz C-75 (1.8%)
1 oz Amarillo @ 60 minutes
1 oz Amarillo @ 10 minutes
1 oz Amarillo @ flameout (or whirpool)
Dry hop 1 oz Citra, 1 oz Mosaic, 1 oz El Dorado for 4 days
White Labs WLP067 Coastal Haze Ale Blend (with a 2 liter starter)
