Hops for Lucky Bucket Lager

[BS]

I'm interested in brewing a pre-pro lager, and I was inspired to start planning by the Lucky Bucket show. I remember there were 4 hops in the beer: Magnum, Hersbrucker, Cascade, and one other. Does anyone remember off the top of their head what the fourth hop was? Was it possibly Liberty?

Thanks for the previous post about the yeast - I'll definitely use that WLP833. I agree with the reasoning on that.

Why not contact Zac directly? http://www.luckybucketbrewing.com/contact/

Be sure to tell him how much you enjoyed the show and thank him for taking time to do it.

Or you could listen to the show again? I believe the show is archived now.

But, to answer your question...l believe the 4th hop, after a recent change, was amarillo. But, don't quote me on that.

But, seriously as Bug said: Contact Zac, he is an awesome guy and generous with his information and time. He will help you out as much as he can. He is really busy right now, so give him a little time to get back to you.

I got off my lazy ass and re-listened to the show. Here are my notes about the recipe as a whole - Zac didn't provide a lot of detail about quantities, so that's why this isn't more specific:

Malt bill:
2 row
Munich
A little caramel malt

In the boil: Magnum, Liberty, Hersbrucker, Cascade

Dry hopped with Cascade and a touch of Amarillo

Ferment at 50F for 1 week, then lager at 35F for 4 weeks

Lucky Bucket lager is a fantastic brew and honestly I probably would not have tried it or even heard of it if Zac hadn't been interviewed by the BN. This could easily be a gateway craft beer for your average american light lager drinker. Kudos Zac!
