Suggestions please!

Malts and yeasts are no problem as I don't keep a stock but I have the following hops:

Apollo - lots
Bullion - fair amount
Challenger - fair amount
Chinook - fair amount
Fuggles - a few grams
Galaxy (pellets) - fair amount
EKG - a little
Hallertauer Hersbrucker - fair amount
Saaz - a few grams
Summit - lots
Warrior - lots
Willamette - lots

Probably looking for something in the "a little stronger than session" range. 5-6% and easy going...

In stash I have a nice bitter, some american pale, an RIS coming into condition, a big 9% APA in bottles, a hefeweizen to bottle tonight and I'll be doing a Bullion version of Aleman's effin oatmeal stout. Something to complement those would be cool.

So, fire away!

Thanks!

How about a nice Porter or a Mild. :

Challenger for buttering with EKG and fuggles for flavour and aroma to about 30ibu, and use pale malt , wheat malt a bit of crystal and a bit of choc to give a nice 6% ruby brown. Perhaps add some un toasted oats for a smooth finish.

I would suggest another IPA/APA. Maybe using challenger as bittering and apollo and galaxy for aroma. Perhaps use the apollo as both an early and late addition?

Thanks chaps...

"Ruby", "brown", "mild"... :hmm: yes, I think this is the way to go... The Sarah Hughes gets good reports - I could base one on that I suppose...

IPA/APA I already have an all Summit simple MO + crystal easy drinking thing planned... :thumb:
