Notes: Kentucky Common is a pre-Prohibition style popular in northern Kentucky and southern Indiana. It's currently kept alive by two brew pubs and homebrewers. The beer is one of three uniquely American beer styles. Since no one really knows what this tasted like, I'll just experiment until I get a beer I like. 8/28/16. I have a beer I really like, freezing the recipe.
Target bitterness is 20 IBU
Ferment at 68 degrees.
8/28/16: Renamed to "Hilltopper's Pride", scaled to 6 gallons. Targeting 20 IBU in next batch.
GABF silver award in Historical category, 2017, Ironworks Brewing.
Gold Medal, Historical, Arapahoe Co. Fair Homebrew Comp 2018. 3rd Place, Craft Beer Competition (professional), Colorado State Fair.
Use 1liter starter based on fresh yeast.
1/29/19: Reverting to 2017 recipe. 1.5 liter starter.
12/30/19: Added 1 oz of Crystal 80, changed flavor hop to Hallertau, note: DO NOT USE BLACKSTRAP MOLASSES. Use a milder form such as Brer Rabbit or Grandma's.
4/8/2021: Very minor tweaks: Molasses to 3 oz, Crystal 80 to 4, IBUs lowered to 20. Water recalculated to RO. |

Notes: All grains and pumpkin go in the mash. If the pumpkin is in the boil you will most likely lose a gallon of water, and have a tough time straining the pumpkin out.
If you really want to put the pumpkin into the boil then you should use a grain bag or filter the wort before racking to your primary.
The pumpkin should be cleaned and cut into small cubes and baked for 45 mins at 350, then mashed and coated with honey. Then baked for another 45 mins at 350. Let it cool to 154 and add to mash. ( I used can un spiced pumpkin in all steps )
Secondary - 10-3-14 added 2 oz vanilla extract, 1 cinnamon stick, 16oz pumpkin flesh, 1/2 teaspoon graham cracker extract and 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice. Will sample in a week.
Btw- tasted really good
For the vanilla bean vodka solution, two vanilla beans are cut in half. The seeds and goodies are then scraped into 4oz of vodka. Let the vodka sit for two weeks. |

Notes: There is no way to make this recipe match the style as long as the FG requirement is 1.010+. What 3% beer finishes that high? Especially one that includes sugar.
I'm ignoring the SG requirements and going for ABV, IBU, and color only. |

Amber extract has C60 already.
For a fresher taste and perhaps more body and not much effort, I'm adding some C20.

BREWING DAY-TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED
DRINKABILITY: Sampled on a few hours of carbonation and it taste fantastic!! Can really taste the freshness.
SESSION NOTES:
Changed from 15 pds of German Pilsner to 12 pds.
Accidentally tossed SAAZ & Hallertau at boil.
Tossed correct SAAZ & Hallertau at end of boil.
Too much water loss due to boil.
Should have had boiling water end of session to top off fermenator to 5.25 gallons.
STANDARD BREWING NOTES:
Create 8 gallons sparge water. Bring to 154° strike temperature
Prime pump. Push water through hose.
Add grain – Sparge at 152° for 90 minutes (Minimum 60)
(One gallon loss during sparge process)
Water burn rate: 1 gallon per hour.
Drain GRAIN from kettle. Adjust water height of ___ (7 gallons)
Boil clean water for end of boil session adjustment
Mash Option dark beers – Add x tablespoon Calcium Carbonate
60 minutes – Add tablespoon 5.2 pH balancer
60 minutes – Add 2 drops Fermcap
60 minutes – Add 5 tablespoon Gypsum for IPA (Optional)
15 minutes – Add immersion chiller
15 minutes - Add Whirlfloc
10 minutes – Add 1 teaspoon Yeast Nutrient last 10 minutes
♦Check to see if nozzle is pointed upwards
KEGGING NOTES:
Purge oxygen with CO2
Chill keg 24 hours before force carbonation.
Force Carbonation Calculator: 20 psi 4 days
Volumes of CO2 2.5 at 36°F = 10.2 psi American Ales
Procedure:
I would use a large grain bag (24"x24") as there is a lot of grain to mash.
Mash normally for 60 minutes then sparge normally. Collect 6 gallons to 6.25 Gallons of wort for boil. Boil for 90 minutes total. Bittering hops for 60 min., flavor and aroma hops separately during the last minute of the boil. Chill to 65ish F. Take OG. Crudely filter (whirlpool) from your boil into your primary after pitching your 2 packs of 1007 (Hops in the primary is good for this beer). Ferment for 2 weeks@ 65ish F. Take FG. Calculate dextrose amount based on yield in gallons, I used 3.5 oz. Filter beer through fine strainer or pantyhose (or both) from your primary into your bottling vessel. Bottle. Leave for another 2 weeks with minimum aggravation (you want the yeast to settle and become dense). Chill 24hrs prior to drinking. Pour into glass avoiding the yeast. Enjoy and share.

RECIPE:
Smithwick's Ale clone
Author: BYO Staff Issue: April 2001
When my wife and I visited Ireland, we really enjoyed our share of Smithwick’s Ale. Smithwick’s is a light-bodied, copper-colored Irish Red ale with a pleasant hint of roastiness and a dry finish. Here’s a successful homebrew version of Smithwick’s.
