Ok... probably just impatient as the beer has only been in the keg 10 days but, fined with gelatin after 48hrs... Still too cloudy to see through. Was more like an EC IPA after 5 days, but now just odd to me.
I've been brewing for over 30 years, had a recipe way back that was a WC - IPA hopped with Amarillo and Cascade, couldn't find the recipe so used my old standby IPA recipe which is kind of a Fresh Squeezed clone'ish. Rather than Citra and Mosaic I substituted Amarillo and Cascade. Went heavy on the Amarillo side, lighter on the Cascade which is likely where my taste issue lies. I know it is "way hoppy" but the Cough Medicine taste is throwing me. Here's the recipe.
13# 2 Row
10oz Carmel 60L
8oz Munich 10L
7oz Malted Wheat
2oz Carapils
1.25oz Magnum @ 60min
1.0oz Cascade @ 10min
1.50oz Amarillo @ 10min
0.75oz Mosaic @ FO
1.00oz Cascade @ FO
1.00oz Amarillo @ FO
0.50oz Cascade DH -5days
0.50oz Citra DH - 5 Days
1.50oz Amarillo DH - 5 days
US-05 pitched @68* temp reduced to 65* after active ferment started
OG - 1.054
FG - 1.009
Hope that's enough info... just wondering if my heavy hand with the Amarillo is the flavors I'm tasting.
Thanks for the help.
