Well I finally brewed a beer I'm proud of! Here's the recipe:
American 2-Row.....................2.5 lb
Wheat Malt, White..................0.5 lb
Carapils® Malt.......................0.5 lb
Crystal 40.............................0.5 lb
Golden Light DME...................5.0 lb
Chinook (US) 1.0 oz 60 min Pellet
Cascade (US) 0.5 oz 30 min Pellet
Cascade (US) 1.0 oz 15 min Pellet
Simcoe (US) 0.5 oz 5 min Pellet
Amarillo (US) 0.5 oz 5 min Pellet
Amarillo (US) 0.5 oz 5 days Dry Hop Pellet
Cascade (US) 0.5 oz 5 days Dry Hop Pellet
Centennial (US) 1.0 oz 5 days Dry Hop Pellet
Simcoe (US) 0.5 oz 5 days Dry Hop Pellet
American Ale Wyeast 1056
It's been bottled for 2.5 weeks and tastes great. The only thing I'd like to improve is to add a little more Malt character. The alc. came in around 6.15% which is perfect for me so I'm hoping not to increase the alc. if possible.
Any ideas on how I could possibly improve on this recipe?
Thanks in advance!
