Notes: BYO - November 2023 Anchor's Our Special Ale, Clone article.
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.070 FG = 1.017
IBU = 30 SRM = 32 ABV = 7%
An ode to Anchor Brewing Co.’s annual holiday release Our Special Ale with advice gleaned from former longtime Anchor Brewmaster Scott Ungermann.
Ingredients
12.5 lbs. (5.7 kg) 2-row pale malt
13 oz. (370 g) crystal malt (40 °L)
6 oz. (170 g) chocolate malt
6 oz. (170 g) Briess Midnight Wheat malt
6 oz. (170 g) Special B malt
6 oz. (170 g) Briess Victory® malt
6.8 AAU Northern Brewer hops (60 min.) (0.8 oz./23 g at 8.5% alpha acids)
2.2 AAU Cascade hops (60 min.) (0.4 oz./11 g at 5.5% alpha acids)
1.25 oz. (35 g) Fuggle hops (dry hop)
1⁄2 tsp. ground cardamom (mash)
1⁄4 tsp. ground cinnamon (5 min.)
1⁄2 tsp. ground coriander (5 min.)
1⁄2 tsp. ground juniper berries (5 min.)
1 tsp. bitter orange peel (5 min.)
0.2 oz. (8 g) gypsum (optional if using very low mineral water)
White Labs WLP051 (California Ale V), Wyeast 1272 (American Ale Yeast II), or Mangrove Jack’s M36 (Liberty Bell Ale) yeast
3⁄4 cup corn sugar (for priming)
Step by Step
Mill grains and mix with cardamom and 5.9 gallons (22.4 L) of 160 °F (71 °C) strike water and optional gypsum to reach a mash temperature of 149 °F (65 °C). Hold this temperature for 60 minutes. Vorlauf until your runnings are clear. Sparge the grains with 1.7 gallons (6.5 L) of 168 °F (76 °C) water and top up if necessary to obtain 6.25 gallons (24 L) of wort.
Boil for 60 minutes, adding hops according to the ingredients list. Add the cinnamon, coriander, juniper berries, and bitter orange peel in the last five minutes. Once you reach an original gravity of 1.070, turn off the heat and chill the wort to slightly below fermentation temperature, about 65 °F (18 °C). If using liquid yeast, aerate the wort with pure oxygen or filtered air before pitching yeast. Ferment at 67 °F (19 °C) for four days. Add dry-hop addition and raise to 72 °F (22 °C) for three days. Once at terminal gravity (approximately seven days total) bottle or keg the beer and carbonate to 2.6 volumes CO2.
Extract with grains version:
Replace the pale malt with 7 lbs. (3.2 kg) extra light dried malt extract. Fill pot with 5.2 gallons (19.7 L) of water and optional gypsum. Place grains and cardamom in a large muslin bag and submerge into the water. Begin heating and when the water reaches 165 °F (74 °C) remove the grains, allowing to drip back into the pot. Turn off heat and stir in the malt extract until completely dissolved. Bring to a boil and boil for 60 minutes, adding hops and spices according to the ingredients list.
After 60 minutes, turn off the heat and chill the wort to slightly below fermentation temperature, about 65 °F (18 °C). Aerate the wort with pure oxygen or filtered air (if using a liquid yeast strain), pitch yeast, and top up fermenter to 5.25 gallons (20 L).
Follow the remainder of the instructions from the all-grain recipe. |

Notes: Started batch w/ 7 gal+
Hit slightly above 160° for steep slightly longer at 50 minutes. Mashed out” at 155° with great color!
Re lit the fire and brought to a boil, added extract and mittelfrüher.
Added extract and bittering hops before boil.
Knockout and chill. Slightly over time. Took about 30 minutes to chill. Really need a new chilling system.
Gravity off target at 1.034
I am not sure why my gravities are always low.
Did not read the instructions on the yeast. Did not sanitize the packet, did not break the nutrient. We will see if fermentation starts and goes. Worst case I get another packet of yeast and actually follow the instructions.
12 hours in, no fermentation yet. Optimal temp and dark conditions. Will update this evening.
Fermentation started about 36 to 40 hours after pitching and is very vigorous. Topped off the airlock.
Checked AM, krausen filled the airlock. Sanitized a new airlock and swapped out. Fermentation still going strong.
Issues with carboy bung created the lack of a tight airlock. Transfered to secondary ~1 week and 2 days after strong fermentation. Good sediment in primary fermenter, and falvor target is on. Did not notice any off flavors from the makeshift cling wrap seal that was necessary to the top of the carboy (after two bungs went for a swim). Gravity measured in line w/ final predicted gravity.
Small amount of fermentation was present in secondary after adding 1.5 pounds of frozen & warmed blueberries. this occured within 12 hours. Placed in moslin bag for secondary.
Will check gravity in a week and re-taste, but predict that this will be a good summer beer just over 4% when finished.
*Changes for next time: I would have added 3.3 pounds of Munic LME that I had on hand, and a second packet of yeast.
Update 6/16: gravity checked in at 1.0 putting alcohol somewhere around 4.85%. Faint berry taste but not overly strong. Nor overtly blueberry. Should drink a lot like a raddler. Will keg on 6/20. |

Notes: Used whole Cascade hops that Philip grew (2018) in Girdletree, MD.
Guessing Alpha Acid level as 4.5%.
Added additional .25 oz hops beyond exact recipe at 60 minutes to increase the IBUs a bit!
Added 1# additional LME to increase ABV from 4.5% to 5.2%. Recipe says 6# + Steeping grains should yield 5% ABV.
Priming sugar for 2.4 volumes CO2 based on 68 degF beer when bottling.
Hydrated dry yeast before pitching.
Split LME in halves and used one half in a late addition after the boil was completed. This effectively increaded the IBUs by about 8. |
