Hi all,
Tapped a keg last night that was a Blonde ale bittered with Magnum and a bit of Cascade late. I'm getting no Cascade at all and a distinct earthy flavour, that I think may be coming from the Magnum, but this is my first time using it. Once you stop looking for the Cascade and drink it for what it is, it's actually not a bad brew, but just not what I was going for. Just wondering if anyone else has had a real earthy flavour come through from a MAgnum bittereing addition. FWIW the brew details are below:
Brookvale Blonde (Blonde Ale)
Original Gravity (OG): 1.048 (°P): 11.9
Final Gravity (FG): 1.012 (°P): 3.1
Alcohol (ABV): 4.72 %
Colour (SRM): 5.3 (EBC): 10.4
Bitterness (IBU): 23.3 (Average - No Chill Adjusted)
88.89% Pilsner
5.56% Carapils (Dextrine)
5.56% Melanoidin
0.2 g/L Magnum (12.5% Alpha) @ 60 Minutes (Boil)
0.8 g/L Cascade (7.8% Alpha) @ 0 Minutes (Boil)
0.8 g/L Centennial (9.7% Alpha) @ 0 Minutes (Boil)
Single step Infusion at 67°C for 60 Minutes. Boil for 60 Minutes
Fermented at 15°C with Wyeast 2565 - Kölsch
