FrankenClones

I am sure this has been done, but has anyone fiddled with mixing and matching grain bills and hop schedules of different clones?

First that comes to mind is Zombie Dust grain bill + 2Hearted Ale hop schedule. - "Zombie Heart"

and so on...

Thoughts?

Exactly OZM (but I think both use 04 yeast?)

What other combos can we think of?

Since you brought up FFF, I did a grain bill of Gumballhead and the hop schedule of Zombie Dust. Because of the hops it really tasted more like Zombie Dust.

7 lb American - Pale 2-Row 37 1.8 60.9%
4 lb American - Wheat 38 1.8 34.8%
0.5 lb American - Victory 34 28 4.3%

0.5 oz Citra Pellet 14.1 First Wort 16.01
1.5 oz Citra Pellet 14.1 Boil 15 min 39.35
2 oz Citra Pellet 14.1 Boil 1 min 4.56
2 oz Citra Pellet 14.1 Dry Hop 7 days

Because I'm so clever I called it Gumball Dust

one of the things Ive done recently is find a base grain bill that I like and try different hop combinations then say yeah or na and move on to the next, similar to what your asking
