- Adding belgian aromatic malts and flaked oats - Reducing wheat This is a variation of the rare barrel golden recipe. It uses flaked oats and belgian aromatic to get some more malty complexity. I'm going to try adding that here, but keeping the malt bill about 20% wheat just because I really like what the wheat does for this style.
