Centennial Cascade with Honey Malt
This is homebrew #16 in our Centennial Cascade 2 Hop series. In this series we are making homebrews with Centennial and Cascade hops. I want to test out what malts, yeast go best with both hops. This version adds honey malt to the grain bill. Here is the recipe I used for this small batch. 1.25 gallons into the fermenter:
2 LBS 2-Row
4 oz Honey Malt
.25 oz Centennial 60 min
.25 oz Cascade 10 min
.25 oz Centennial 5 min
.25 oz Centennial and Cascade dry hop day 3
US-05 yeast
6.49% ABV
Color: Light caramel like a red orange. Hazy
Smell: Floral citrus
Taste: More sweetness in this one vs a lot of the other ones. Floral and citrus
Overall: I think this one needs more hops. The honey malt is covering up a lot of the hop flavors.
