back in february i got a challenge to make a cream ale based on pineapple upside down cake. took me awhile to figure out the recipie what grains to use what hops to use and how much of everything. well the grains were easy to figure out i just took a recipie and changed some stuff around. the hops were more difficult to choose finally settled on Denali and as soon as i opened the package knew i made the right choice. as soon as i opened it got this big pineapple aroma coming out of there when i brewed this yesterday.
anyway enough story time recipie goes like this here
MASH
1.5 lb 2-row
.2 lb flaked corn
.1 lb cherry smoked malt
1 cup pineapple
BOIL
.03 oz Denali at 60
.03 oz Denali at 30
.03 oz Denali at 10
1 cup pineapple at 10
.15 lb brown sugar at 0
heres the specs based on that brewers friend program
OG: 1.055
FG: 1.013
ABV: 5.57%
IBU: 19.3
SRM:4.71(Morey)
while it was mashing the aroma was real nice and then when the boil started and i put in the first batch of hops got even better. i dont know if im going to accomplish what im trying to do here but either way it should be a real good beer
