Mismatch Brewing - Archie's Red Ale

[damoninja]

Hi all,

Looking to clone a beer I tried on the weekend, real nice drop but only available in SA so hoping maybe someone has tried it and can assist!
Basing specs of malt / hops / yeast found here: http://www.mismatchbrewing.com.au/archieredale.html

Threw some stuff in to brewmate to get a basic idea, will put it in to beersmith and get a better gauge when I leave work.

Any feedback / thoughts appreciated!

Rye can make sparging hell, but I dont think you will have enough to be an issue

I've heard this, I have my grain in a bag in my mash tun so if I do get any issues I can move it about.

I discovered sparging issues when I first used 10% rolled oats in a recipe. Bag solved this,
