Hey all,

I was lucky enough to get one of the 50 entries for this homebrew contest sponsored by Portsmouth Brewery (of the Kate the Great fame)



I was thinking of something like this: http://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/48957/roggenbier

or this

http://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/48964/kent-s-hollow-leg

Any ideas to improve either of these or good recipes?

Thanks!
perogi.

I would brew the San Diego Session collaboration ale from Ballast Point / Kelsey McNair / Stone. It's about 4% ABV, I think - and totally delicious. You can do a search for the recipe on-line - here's link to one variation: http://www.homebrewersassociation.org/forum/index.php?topic=7675.0

You bet! Even if you don't brew that for the contest, you may want to consider brewing it anyway, if you like IPAs. It truly is a nice "session" beer - the hop nose on it is quite nice! Mug

What about one of the lower ABV beers from our recipes section?: http://www.theelectricbrewery.com/recipes

They're all great! (IMHO of course). Wink

Oh trust me, I've brewed almost all of those and love the ones that I brewed Smile

I was looking at what they have on tap and trying to give them something that they don't have. They have Old Brown Dog ale (which is probably my favorite commercial brown ale) and always have good IPA/APAs on tap.

Leaning towards a lower ABV Rye/Wheat beer although Dick's link is pretty sweet too.

(Un)fortunately, I brewed Dogfish Head 60 IPA on Saturday and that's bubbling away nicely. I have a few weeks to come up with a recipe and get it ready to go.
