James Squire Pilsner Clone ?

[hairofthedog]

has anyone got any ideas on a JS pilsner clone ?

 

[bakkerman]

90% pale malt
10% Munich,

Bitter up to 40 IBU with NZ B Saaz (Motueka) as aroma hop.

You can use Super Alpha as bittering hop too.

Should get you close.

I think a JS Pils clone was the first recipe that Dane put up in the recipeDB when it was reconstructed. I am pretty sure, he uploaded it elsewhere to test if you can upload promash files.
I just used search - [topic="415"]Thread 415, uploading .rec fils[/topic]

Might not be a clone but will be dam nice. A bit bigger than JS I reckon too! Infusion mash would do too!
