I have an idea for a really F-ed up Sour

[DrDonkie]

Hey guys!

I was thinking of doing my own spin on a Berliner Weisse-like beer with Rye and Marris Otter as my base as opposed to Wheat.

I was thinking about Mash Hopping with: Chinook, Colombus, Summit, or Citra.

I would like to divide my batch into 2 5 gal carboys. One I will ferment with WLP650 and the other with WLP653. I plan on blending the two batches at the end of fermentation to my desired taste.

If you guys have any comments, critisisms... let me know. I greatly appreciate it!

Thanks and Happy Brewing!

Dave

Starting to sound less and less like a berliner, but homebrewing exists for experimenting!

It was inspired by a Berliner Weisse that is brewed in the Philadelphia Area. I know that this is not going to be brewed to any real style.

Interesting . Keep the ibu level below 10

+1 on the low IBUs

Any other hops other than the mash hops?

[DrDonkie]

No, just mash hops.

Interesting... keep us updated, please. Provided you keep the hops minimal, this sounds like it could be a pretty good... er... f-ed up sour. All bottles for analysis should be sent as soon as it's ready. PM me for my address
