In the post I don’t know if you already brewed this beer.
The malts look good. Curious if you will get enough color from the lighter Lovibond sweet malts and a little bit of Black? But for a color like Fat Tire, this might be just fine.
For ten gallons, is 2 ounces of aroma hops going to be enough?
Seems like a lot of people are brewing up red ales these days.
I got mine in early to enjoy now. In that Simcoe 100, I used a good amount of darker crystals, but the overall color was a very deep/rich reddish color.
The London strain is quite fruity. Very nice, but I also think it causes the hops to taste and smell more fruity as well.
Let us know how this turns out.
Ted,
Sorry for the comment moderation, I have been playing with the settings.
The hop profile on this one is based on Yukon Arctic Red that we doubled from a clone recipe we found. We actually added the dry hopping with one OZ leaf hops.
It’s bubbling away right now and I was thinking about grabbing another OZ of leaf hops and when I rack it into the secondary, I would give it a smell and taste and if it needs more, just add it. That’s the beauty of aroma hops!
As far as the color goes, it had a hint of red to it, but it was not anything to write home about. We were both wondering about where the red would come from. I think in the end, it will have a little red tint to it, but nothing to write home about.
I will keep you updated!
Cheers
