|
I'm looking to make a clone of Smithwick's Ale (dark, malty irish red
ale). If anybody knows of a good clone recipe please let me know. So
far this is my working recipe for a 5 gal AG batch assuming 75%
efficiency.
9 Lb Marris Otter
12 oz Crystal 60L
8 oz cara-pils
2.5 oz roasted barley
Mashed at about 153F (Batch Sparge)
Hops (Full Boil):
.5 oz Kent Goldings 60 min
.5 oz Kent Goldings 20 min
.25 oz Fuggles 10 min
~18 IBUs
Any thoughts on this recipe or other recipe suggestions?

Looks good. Bitterness might be on the low end depending on the alpha acid,
but it's still acceptable. I like my brews on the malty side, if you do too
then I'm sure you'll like the result of this recipe.

I'd be interested to know how this turns out. You didn't mention your
choice of yeast.

Hi Brian, I made a Smithwick's clone this spring that I thought came
pretty close (IBUs were actually ~24, because I did a concentrated wort
and diluted it after the boil). It's not that different from your
recipe -- a bit more hops. My only complaint was that it was more
brown than red, so I would scale back the RB a bit (2-3 oz instead of 4
in this case), and maybe try to find some CaraRed or similar crystal
malt.
