My next AG will be in a fair while yet but I got the idea of Burnt Offerings when looking though so called "Black IPA" recipes (Black IPA? WTF?)
So I'm thinking of doing something along the lines of 3.5kg of pale, some crystal and a whole load of black malt. Say 250g in a 20 litre batch.
Small amount of bittering hops, then hopped to feck and back with late addition new-world hops (Amarillo/Columbus/Chinook/Green Bullet)
What do you think of this? I'm thinking of a beer with the malt character of a pale ale with a charred/ashy tang and a smack of citrus hops. Bit like some lemon marinaded meat thats been burnt on the BBQ....
