Fields of Rye Barleywine


Inspired by an abundance of 2-row barley in the grain silo, this one will take a little age to full appreciate. I estimate by the time the weather cools again around late harvest, a bottle of this might be welcome.

Malt bill:
13.5 lb Briess Brewers 2-row Malt
4.5 lb Briess Rye Malt
0.25 lb Dingemans Cara 20
0.125 lb Briess Caramel 80L Malt
0.5 lb Briess Victory® Malt

Hops bill:
2 oz Magnum (14% AA, Pellet) @ 60 min.
1 oz Amarillo (7% AA, Pellet) @ 20 min.
1 oz Cascade (5.5% AA, Pellet) @ 20 min.
1 oz Amarillo (7% AA, Pellet) @ 5 min.
1 oz Cascade (5.5% AA, Pellet) @ 5 min.
