Lovin me some Lucky 13 this summer. $3.99 bombers at the local. Want to try my hand at a clone. Anyone have tips on this big red? Especially yeast selection. Me thinks its not Cal Ale.....
Lagunitas is fond of using wyeast London ESB yeast. It's been a few months since I've had a bottle but it is damn tasty!!
For a simple red/amber ale grist I like: 86% Two row pale malt. (Brewers malt I use) 8% C-60 4% Victory 2% Pale chocolate. Won't necessarily clone lucky 13 but is a nice amber base.
