Notes: I brewed it when I saw the recipe on byo, it's ok.
I don't find it particularly special but a good ale to have for those days you are working in the yard and don't want to drink your prized beer. I usually add a lime for a little zest.

Notes: Smell of zesty orange peel. Delightful fresh taste with with good body. Copper colour, with taste notes of freshly crushed coriander seeds. Head is aggressive on the pour due to high carbonation, but settles comfortably after a few minutes.
>malt extract can be light or extra light
>yeast should be Belgian Wit (wheat) beer type
>use light honey
Directions for 5gal batch:
O.G.: 1.056-1.060
F.G.: 1.008-1.010
Bitterness: 18BU
Colour: 4SRM (8 EBC)
Alcohol: 6.3% by volume
Add malt extract, honey, and boiling hops to 7.5L water and boil for 60 mins. Add the Irish moss, flavour hops, and half the ground coriander for 10 mins. Add the remaining ground coriander and orange peel for the final 5 minutes. Add the aroma hops for the final 1-2 minutes of boiling. Strain, sparge, and transfer immediately to 7.5L of cold water in the fermenter. Top off with additional water to make 19L. Aaerate the wort very well. Pitch the yeast when the temperature of the wort is about 21C. Ferment at about 21C for about 1 week or when fermentatino shows signs of calming and stopping.
Prime with sugar and bottle or keg when fermentation is complete. For added attraction add one whole coriander seed to each bottle when bottling (microwave them if worried). |

| Notes: This was a monster ferment. I had the blow off hose in the primary for 5 days. Detected some apple esters initially, but after 2 weeks in the primary the beer cleaned up really nice. I would describe this beer as being very clean and crisp. I added an ounce of dry hop pellets after racking it to the secondary. After 5 days of dry hopping I removed the bag and added a fresh bag of another half ounce of citra and one ounce of mosaic hops. |

Notes: Brew date: 06/08/2014. I hit my target OG of 1.066! The battery of my thermometer stopped working as I was about to pitch my yeast, so I can't be sure of the pitching temp. I waited at least an hour, so I'm sure it went down to room temp. I set up my swamp cooler with sanitized water and four frozen bottles. I will plan to swap out these bottles every 8 hours or so.
Yeast: US-05 is an American ale yeast for well balanced beers with low diacetyl (butter) a very crisp end palate.
Malts: Mostly light extract with some amber for colour and pronounced maltiness. Carafoam for body and head retention. Crystal 40 for slight caramel notes, colour and balance with the high IBUs. Had extra Abbey malt laying around, so I thought I would give it a whirl. Expect honey and complexity, hopefully it adds to the balance.
Hops:
Zythos (60/30/15/0/Dry Hop) Distinct tropical (pineapple) and citrus tones with slight pine and spicy characteristics. Newly developed, best for hoppy west-coast style IPAs.
Domestic Hallertau (45/15/0)
06/14: Found a crack in the lid of my primary. Checked FG and it was 1.018, so I will transfer to secondary and dry hop. Initial sample is sweet, slightly sour, not that good. Mind you, it is 930am, maybe that plays a factor. Is 1.018 too high for a FG? Perhaps there is too much sugar left, adding unneeded sweetness. The other HoYB had the same OG/FG and tasted great, so I'm not too worried.
Bottling Day: 06/24. 3.45 oz of corn sugar (3/4 cup).
An American-style India Pale Ale, dry hopped in the west-coast style with distinct tropical and citrus notes. However, it has a twist with slight pine characteristics, reminiscent of the Canadian wilderness.
Tasting notes on 07/24: Pours a good thumb of head. Colour is a deep amber, almost a brown. Not as light as I thought it would be. Mostly tropical fruit on the nose with slight grassy and piney notes. Like walking through a dewey forest early in the morning. Sharp bittering up front on the tongue. Full bodied and a very strong malt backbone. Fairly sweet and notes of caramel. It's hard to get to detect any fruit. Odd. I remember it tasting better a couple of bottles. Can the taste really change that much bottle to bottle? I'll try another one after the weekend and check.
