Looking for feedback on this recipe that I've put together with ingredients that I have on hand. I haven't brewed many lagers and I'm not so familiar with the various lager styles, I'm more into hoppy ales. My goal is to do a lager with a bit more hop flavour than typical lagers, I'm not so concerned with brewing within specific style guidlines. I have some halertau and Pacifica (aka Pacific hallertau) hops which I'm thinking would be suited to a lager. But I've never brewed with these hops and no idea how these come out when used more liberaly in late additions. I also have another 100g pk of Pacifica pellets available if this recipe can handle more hops, maybe flameout and/or dry hopping? I have some Munich I and II malts that I'd like to use but not quite sure how much would be a good amount. I've gathered that the lagers featuring Munich tend to be more malt focused with minimum hops so I'm wondering how munich does in a more hoppy beer. Also I've never used Mangrove Jacks - Bohemian Lager Yeast - M84. Any feedback greatly appreciated - Cheers, Aidan
