Hi All,
Im looking to brew something similar to little creatures Rogers beer, a mid strength ale of sorts, but very flavoursome (for a midstrength) with a bit of cascade in it.
I did a search for Rogers in the recipe section of the forum but it returned nothing to help me. I'd like to know if anyone out there has tried to formulate a recipe for this beer based on what they have tasted of it.
My first thoughts for an all grain recipe im going to try go something like:
94% Maltcraft Ale malt
3% TF dark crystal malt
3% TF light crystal malt
Mash it high at 70C to keep some flavour
Bittered with East kent goldings to 25 IBUs (EKG for the earthy taste)
Cascade hops for flavour and aroma (for the citrus character)
The beer has a slight fruity character IMO so for yeast, first go i might try Wyeast 1056 at about 20C. Im sure they use that in LCPA, and im not sure if they would have more than one ale yeast used in the brewery (but i could be wrong).
SG probably 1038.
Any thoughts?
