Notes: This brew won gold in the Sangre de Cristo Craft Brewers SMaSH Competition. (Single Malt and Single Hops) Very hop forward but the Citra kept it from going over the top.
Inspiration came from reading of a Hungarian brewery that came up with a "hoplager" as their answer to the American IPA. Not sure what their IBU's came in at but I know I exceeded it. Never planned on it winning and was striving for outlandish. I thought I hit my mark but everyone who's tried it, liked it. (I'll try more hops next time ;) )
If you choose to make this beer make sure you do a good diacetyl rest and give it plenty of time to lager. Mine came out crystal clean with no off flavors. (that's what saved it with the judges) |

Notes: Get ready to dive into the darkness with the Nighthawk Imperial Black IPA. This beer means business, an incredibly hop forward flavor and aroma attacks your senses from first sip. Using an impressive 9 oz. of hops we blend our favorite American varietals to create and complex and long-lasting hop experience of tropical fruits, orange, and a lemon finish. Pours Midnight Black with an off-white head this brew forgoes the heavy roast and astringency you would expect, instead supporting the hops with a slight roasty chocolate malt backbone to add an entirely new dimension to your new favorite IPA.
Notes:
- Due to the high Original Gravity of this brew we recommend making a yeast starter or purchasing an additional vial of yeast.
- This brew uses a two-stage dry hopping process. After 7 days of primary fermentation you will open your fermentation vessel and add 1 oz. Centennial and 1 oz. Amarillo. After an additional week you will transfer to a secondary and dry hop with 1 oz. Falconers Flight and 1 oz. Amarillo for five (5) days and then keg/bottle your brew.

Notes: An ode to that Vermont classic.
Mash at 153F for 60 min. Add First Wort Hops when entire boil volume approaches 160F. 90 minute boil. Dextrose gets added at 30 minutes to go. 0 Minute hopstand hops get added at flameout and stand for 45 minutes. Pitch and ferment at 62F raise temp to 68F after major fermentation has slowed. When fermentation slows, add 2 oz dry hop. When fermentation is complete,cold crash to 38F for 2 days. Rack and add 4 oz dry hop for 3 days then rack to CO2 purged keg, cold crash and carb to 2.0 vols (8 or so psi for serving at 44F) and serve fresh! You will push out any junk with the first half pour. |

Notes: Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash of around 1.5 quarts of water to 1 pound of grain (a liquor-to-grist ratio of about 3:1 by weight) and a temperature of 151 °F (66 °C). Hold the mash at 151 °F (66 °C) until enzymatic conversion is complete. Infuse the mash with near-boiling water while stirring or with a recirculating mash, the system raises the temperature to mash out at 168 °F (76 °C). Sparge slowly with 170 °F (77 °C) water, collecting wort until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 5.9 gallons (22.3 L) and a gravity of 1.051 (12.6 °P).
The total wort boil time is 60 minutes. I prefer to mix in the lactose with the first runnings, which gives me lots of time to make sure it gets dissolved before firing up the kettle. Add the first hop addition as soon as the wort reaches a full boil and then start your timer. Add Irish moss or other kettle finings with 15 minutes left in the boil.
Chill the wort to 68 °F (20 °C) and aerate thoroughly. The proper pitch rate is 2 packages of liquid yeast or 1 package of liquid yeast in a 2-liter starter. Ferment at 68 °F (20 °C). When finished, carbonate the beer to approximately 1.5 to 2 volumes. |
