I know I always think my current batch is my best yet but I really think this one will be, this time (excepting my AG Citra Pale Ale and Bourbon Barrel Porter, which would both be hard to beat). It's an extract, 5 gal:
8 oz Carapils, steeped in 4 gal water at 165F x 20 min.
Boil:
3.5# Pilsen LME
2# Light Pilsen DME
1# Wheat DME
0.5 oz Cascade @ 40 min
0.5 oz Cascade @ 15 min
1.25 oz Bitter Orange peel @ 15 min
1.25 oz Lemon Peel @ 15 min
1 oz Citra @ flameout
2 oz Citra in hop tea with 2 rinses, added to fermenter
1 packet rehydrated Notty
OG = 1.058
If the smell from the fermenter is anything to go by, HeeHeeHee! I'm gonna have a winner!!
But I'm drinking my Vineyard Ale and it's pretty darn good! My best yet!
