Black beer styles for Summer

[Donoroto]

How do you argue with that logic!
I would highly recommend, if he would be obliging enough to grant you license, to Brew the Shady Bohemian.
This a long overdue rebrew for me, will definitely be getting back to this one in the next few months

+1 for Shady Bohemian.

Worked up a couple light porters that might satisfy the beach crowd...assuming that i am able to brew something other then my black lager in the summer.

I will look up a shady bohemian i have never heard of that style before.

2 versions:

w/corn

It looks like shady bohemian(czech dark lager) and Schwarzbier are very similar. @Brew Cat

This is my standard Black lager that i have brewed a bunch of times. I am not sure where it would fall between the two styles????

The water is softer for one like most Bohemian styles probably use Saaz
But similar for sure
Probably need to taste them side by side
I had quite a few in Bohemia last fall
More of a roasty dark pilsner if I was to describe it

 

[Brew Cat]

I'll bet you can make both and serve them side by side and let the customer decide
Might be fun

Very soft water profile, this was what I used in 29 liters of RO for Shady Bo, and the resulting profile

unfortunately i cant modify my water too much. im sort of stuck with balanced 1 for a salt profile.

Shady Bo was a quarterly brew from @Tim Bulin
It is that particular recipe I recommended. It is posted somewhere around here. Maybe in the Quarterly Brews forum.

It was the first one, beginning of the list.

The current version swaps out the uses Saaz for the 2nd hop addition, tried it with all Saaz once, and Sterling another time. Cluster up front and Saaz at the back of the boil has been my favorite.

The OG community brew!
It is coming up after I brew my English Pale
Such a lovely brew!
T'was my first ever lager!

I see you knocked back the SRM from the one I found which is nice

We drank a lot in Bohemia last fall and they weren't as dark as a Dunkel or Schwartz
