Notes: Based off of Matthew Herrold's Meanbrews APA (see his YouTube channel for recipe), adjusting for my malts and hops on hand. Biggest changes are subbing all MO for his combo of 2-Row and Munich as base malts, and for hops subbing Centennial for Cascade, and NZH-107 instead of Citra (both are similar).
Ferment at 66º until about 5 pts from FG, then raise to 70º and add dry hops. Remove after 2 days. |

| Notes: Great success can be found with this yeast using the proper pitch rate, pure oxygen, and holding the temperature near 20C for the first 2-3 days. The key to getting full attenuation is adding simple sugar (300g) at this point and raising the temperature about 1C every 12 hours until you get to about 26C, and holding there until FG, which should be < 1.006 in approximately 7-10 days. |

Notes: Clone of New Belgium Fat Tire. They're a fantastic brewery, and Fat Tire is an excellent crowd pleaser that's easy to drink and easy to like.
There's a lot of debate about their "house" strain of yeast, which they're unsurprisingly secretive about. I've seen suggestions for Wyeast 1792 (an old limited release that was supposedly Fat Tire's strain), WLP001/Wyeast 1056 American Ale (an obvious go-to), a mix of that and Chimay, Wyeast 1272 American Ale II, Nottingham (used in some kits), Wyeast 3655-PC Belgian Schelde Ale (sub WLP515), or Wyeast 1746-PC Pacman (sub Imperial A18 Joystick). I'm trying the Pacman as another homebrewer reported success with it. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/heavily-researched-fat-tire-clone-grain-bill-hop-schedule-what-yeast.167754/
From an interview with a former head brewer at New Belgium: "When trying to emulate Fat Tire Amber Ale, Bouckaert advises that you pay particular attention to the malt bill and the aging process. 'We have a malt character that asks for a lot of light-colored malts,' he says. 'Specialty, Munich and light caramel malts comprise up to 30 percent. For the signature toasted biscuit flavor of this brown-amber beer, add from 5 to 10 percent of malts with a nutty character.' For hops, he recommends shooting for 16 IBUs with a subtle late addition of aroma or dry hops. 'Don't use Cascade or other overpowering hops,' Bouckaert adds." That said, their website lists it as 22 IBUs. |
