This is a variation of Cream of the famous Cream of Three Crops.
Grain bill in this is slightly higher for batch sparge so you can reduce Pilsner malt by 1/2 to 1 lb if you like.
You can also dial back the rice to a 1/2 lb if you like as well.
By far this is my favorite variation of the original, but I am a Cream Ale/Kolsch junkie so I may be biased on that LOL!
Feel free to swap out hops Willamette and Vanguard are a great combo too and play well with Kolsch yeast.
Cheers!!
