Photos to come of tonight’s madness (I brewed TWO batches of wheat beer). BUT: I had some inspiration.
I’m LOVING these Centennial Hops - and I don’t even LIKE hops. Obviously, I don’t want the bitterness, but the smell is just intoxicating! I’m thinking I could rock something out. So, here’s the plan.
I’m going to take a Blonde base recipe and sub out the hops for these Centennial Hops, but I’ll put in a shit load of them only at the end - which is when the aroma will come out but not the bitterness. Then, instead of sugar for the fermentation I’m going to use RASPBERRIES. Fucking RASPBERRIES. And if I can work the sugar out right, I’ll put some fucking honey in there too, because why the fuck not?
Don’t you want to try my Centennial Raspberry Honey Blonde? Fuck yeah. This is going to be NUTS.
I might be able to do this in as little as 4 days because the Edelweiss that’s boiling right now only sits in the carboy for 3 days before bottling.
HOLD ON TO YOUR BUTTS!
