I'm designing a recipe that's meant to be something between a hoppy porter and a black IPA and wanted to mix it up a bit. I haven't used rye before but understand it might add a bit of a peppery note which would an interesting element, and was also intrigued by the idea of blackcurrant notes from Bramling Cross.
Here's what I was picking and would love thoughts on whether it makes sense:
5.5 gal batch size
Grain bill
- 9.5 lb Pale Ale 3.5L
- 3.0 lb Carabrown malt 55L
- 1.0 lb Rye 3.5L
- 0.5 lb Black malt 500L
Hops bill
1.5 oz Warrior 16AA @ 60min
1.0 oz Fuggles 4.5AA @ whirlpool
2.0 oz Bramling Cross @ dryhop
Reactions?
