Hi all
I am still very new to home brewing but I am loving it. Still not confident enough to try the whole mash thing yet - so I have been playing with can/kit recipes I have found on various forums.
I did a batch of the Chillie Ginger beer and it was great.
And found a Honey Ginger Lager recipe that sound like it would be good
I was thinking of a hybrid of the two to make a chillie ginger lager. I still want it to taste like a beer but with a hint of Ginger and a subtle bite of the Chillie.
If I do the following will it work - just taste like crap.
Chillie Ginger Lager
Makes 23 Litres.
Ingredients:
o 1Can of Lager
o 4 fresh red chillies
o 100 g grated ginger.
o Saflager S-23 Yeast
Directions:
1. Cut up Chillies and grate the ginger. Boil in 1ltr water for 20mins
1. Make as you would a normal kit beer, adding the chillie and ginger mix directly to the wort.
3. Finish brew as a normal kit beer.
Any thoughts or ideas on if this will work or how I should modify this to make it work would be greatly appreciate
