Notes: - based on "Westbound Quad" recipe on the HBA website/zymurgy magazine. That called for 1.1kg dark candi sugar @ 180L. I'll use 180 if I can find it, otherwise I'll mix/match dark and light to try and hit about 20 SRM.

the TL;DR
MALTS (for 20L batch)
15 lb. (6.8 kg) Belgian Pilsner malt
2.5 lb. (1.13 kg) 180° L dark candi sugar

Original Gravity: 1.091 (21.8° P)
Final Gravity: 1.009 (2.3° P)
ABV: 11%
IBU: 30
SRM: 29
Efficiency: 75%

update 2019-10-17: first attempt at this ended up looking like a tripel because the candi sugar was not as dark as advertised (60°L rather than 275). Fixed by making a reduction of Special B and Chocolate malt (recipe updated).

Cream Ale Recipe

This is a very simple, inexpensive cream ale recipe that will get every BMC drinker in the room enjoying homebrew. So named because of the three different crops that go into the grist (Barley, Corn and Rice).

I brewed up 10 gallons of this and after kegging, bottled up a case to take to a family event (Mothers Day). Even my 78-yr old FIL, who is strict Miller Lite drinker, ended up having two pints. The chics dug it and we ran out well before the end of the evening.

The grain bill is cheap and in this case, you can use Minute Rice instead of flaked rice. No step mashing required. Simply combine the ingredients and follow a simple single infusion mash at around 152 degrees. I also mashed this for 90 minutes to get a highly attenuated beer. FG was 1.005...leaving a very dry, crisp beer with no noticeable graininess.

While this doesn't adhere to the strict beer laws, and I don't consider this one of my "craft" efforts, it is without a doubt the beer that I get the most "you really made this beer?" comments.

So if you've got some hard core "If it ain't Budweiser it ain't beer…" drinking friends…give this a try.

This beer clears up quickest of any of my recipes.

Notes: I am gunning for something like Old Speckled Hen,in terms of sweet, malty goodness and drinkability. The cascade should give it a citrusy edge. I am not going for a clone.

Well, just bottled this. OG was 1.045 and FG 1.008 to give abv 4.9ish. Lovely amber colour. Not tasted yet.
Bottled 7 500ml/ 17oz bottles and 9 330ml/ 12oz bottles. Head space variable plus 200ml of sugar solution added.
Very tasty ale, but flat...Need to up the CO2 level. 2.2 vols may have been better, so next time 45g of sugar.
After about 2 months this was very good indeed.

Notes: Pitch 20g of yeast. Higher gravity than usual, so double up the yeast.

Only sparged minimally. Too much grain for me to sparge at the moment, so need a bigger bucket.

Came out with an fg of 1.028. Mash at lower temp? Tastes rich and sweet, bitterness is masked nicely. Perhaps more choc grain next time to improve the roasty flavour?

Notes: BIAB Mash in 5 gal kettle, bring to boil, cool to 90, add 5 capsules of lactobacillus plantarum to kettle sour. After souring, boil for hops, chill and top off with water in fermenter. Add two bottles of Knudsen's tart cherry juice after primary fermentation (what the sucrose ingredient represents).

Notes: Use orange blossom honey and the zest of 1 medium-sized organic navel orange. Its easy to overdo the orange zest so go easy and let the orange blossom honey come through.
