Hi all
Gonna brew this tomorrow evening
Any comments on this would be greatly recieved been searching the web and there's not much. Hoping for it to go something along the lines of Wychwoods Ginger Beard.
I've gone for low IBU's and no flavour/aroma hops
Beersmith recommends something like 4oz of ginger in a 5 gal brew so this is loads more, but not as much as posted in other threads for a ginger beer - do you think its enough.
Gonna mash about 64-65 degrees to ensure fully ferments out then will add the lactose for residual sweetness.
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS TO PLEASE SWMBO!
