Beer Style: American Pale Ale (10A)
Recipe Type: all-grain
Yield: 5 US gallons
Description:
This ale is light in color, but full-bodied. If you want an amber color, add a cup of caramel malt. I get a strong banana odor in most of my ales (from the Edme I believe) which subsides after 2-3 weeks in the bottle. If you don't have the capacity for 9 pounds of malt, you could substitute some extract for the pale malt. Just thinking about this makes me want to speed home and have a cool one.
Ingredients:
- 8 pounds, 2-row pale malt
- 1 pound, Munich malt
- 1/2 cup, dextrin malt
- 1 teaspoon, gypsum
- 20 grams, Nugget leaf hops (14 alpha)
- 15 grams, Brambling leaf hops
- pinch, Irish moss
- 1 pack, Edme ale yeast
