Well, shoot. That's going on my brew list.
Did you follow a recipe/kit or wing it?
Had an old recipe that I modified because I had some spices lying around to use and leftover LME from the other batch going. Here's what i did:
3 lbs Llano Pils steep 45 min at 150-60 degrees
Bring to boil, add
6lbs Gold LME
1 lb Pils LME
2 lbs honey
1 oz Cascade
After 45 min add:
1/2 oz Cascade
0.4 oz bitter orange peel / 0.5 oz sweet orange peel
0.5 oz mix cracked coriander seed and coriander powder
After 10 more min add 1/2 oz Cascade, boil 5 more min.
Cool and add water to bring to 5 gal, original gravity should be about 1.071, maybe a little higher? Pitched Wyeast 3787.
Final gravity of this batch was 1.019 with the priming sugar so about 7% ABV.
