Last night I had a dream about a recipe that tastes of the sea, and of the old gods. Three weird sisters, with one hop for each of the fates. Six row as a base malt, at 9 pounds, and 4 ounces of Blackprinz and sea salt at a minimum.
The recipe would be strong and sturdy, and a reddish color. It would have crystal malts and more specialty grains of some sort, with a forceful field of hops. Some sort of cascadia dark ale, perhaps? An imperial IPA? An old ale or scottish ale? It was to taste of viking sailers and the three weaving women who knit our days to the end of them.
It is not next on my brewing line up. Next is bottling the steam beer, and brewing something corona-like do the summer, light and Lager.
But I dreamed of a recipe. I write it down.
You know the limitations of the recipe. What do you add? What hops? What other grains? What style should it be?
3 weird sisters
9 pounds Six-Row Malt
4 ounces Blackprinz
?
Sea salt
3 different hops @60, @30, @15
Fill in the gaps. My dream did not reveal more than this.
