#45/67 Cerveza Pacífico Clara

Mexican pilsner-style beer first brewed in 1900 when three Germans opened a brewery, the Cerveceria del Pacífico in Mazatlán.  This Pacifico Clone beer recipe kit makes a light refreshing lager.  This beer gets no respect by beer drinkers with a Beer Advocate Rating of 63 and a Rate Beer Rating of 5.  This is a great beer for parties since half the people there don't really like beer.

Cerveza Pacifico Clara bottle labelThe Adventures in Homebrewing recipe is available online for typically $20.  I tried to make a similar variation.

Grains (20 mins)
1 lb Flaked Maize
Fermentables
3 lb Light DME
4.75 lbs Northern Brewer Gold Malt Syrup
1 lb Rice Solids (I used the wrong ingredient here)
Hops
.5 oz Liberty (60 min)
.5 oz Liberty (1 min)
Yeast
WLP940 Mexican Lager
Cerveza Pacifio bottle cap

I messed the first batch of this with the use of Flaked Rice instead of Rice Solids.  The taste turned out just fine.  Not big deal.  I steeped the Flaked rice with the Flaked Maize.  After realizing my mistake, I tried to dissolve another pound of Flaked Rice.
