The Grey Lady Clone #1 = Brew #4

Looks like we will try to do The Grey Lady Clone, attempt #1 next week. Looking at possibly Thursday night, but not sure yet. It may even happen during the afternoon.

The Grey Lady is a Belgian Wit from Cisco Brewery with lots of chamomile, coriander, clove, and other possible spices. This is the first clone attempt we will make, brewing the basic recipe for it. I will also setup 5 growlers for secondary that will each contain a different setup of spices to add to it to experiment and see which tastes the closest. Once we narrow it down, I will tweak the recipe as needed and we can try again next summer.

Its a very light beer, with lots of spices. It clocks in at 3.9SRM (very light) with a haze and cloudiness, 14.6IBUs, an OG of 1.047 to be expected, and FG of 1.012. It should have a nice Belgian wit quality to it. More info to follow.
