I'm bored. What should my next brew be?

Looking at it for New Years I see a beer to use instead of champagne.......I vote for a Belgian tripel with American hops. No need to age it, it's ok to be highly carbed(like champagne), is strong(like champagne), will have a dry finish(like champagne), and a simple recipe.

12lbs pilsner
1 flaked wheat/biscuit
2lbs sugar either to end of boil, or when krausen starts to go down(my choice)
your choice of American hops.
Trappist yeast of your choice

I did this with Summit, Citra, and Amarillo and it was ridiculously good!

 

How soon do you want to be drinking it? Seems like you have stuff in the pipeline, so maybe you can think long term and do something bretty.

 

What was your hop schedule on this? Thanks

 

I second this. what og did you shoot for as well and what yeast? i've been using the wyeast ardennes strain

 

My vote goes for doppelbock.

 

Some late hops might make that a little more drinkable at 5 weeks old.

 

I'm not at my notes right now, but I'm guessing it was close to this:
1oz Summit @60min
2oz Citra @1min
2oz Amarillo @2min
2oz each of Citra, Amarillo dry hopped for 4 days. I was sipping on these as soon as they were carbed, kinda like a Belgian IIPA.

I used Chimay yeast

OG was around 1.08-1.09-ish, FG was pretty low, probably 1.010-ish.

Probably 2 weeks to ferment, 3 at the most. It should be ready by the New Year.

 

Old Ale with Brett C
Brew a Flanders red with Roeselare and hit it with some cherries and raspberries in the spring
British mild with rye

 

How did this turn out when you brewed it?

 

I've done a rye mild in the past, it was dope.

Maybe something along the lines of DuPont Avec, but using 3711 for a quicker turnaround?
