Notes: Delicious Blonde Ale. Started with 6 lbs of fresh Florida strawberries, frozen, then pureed. Ended with 5.5 lbs strawberries. Racked beer to secondary at 7 days, and added strawberries in several fine mesh hop bags. I was anticipating a reinvigorated fermentation, but what I got was much more than expected. Despite using a bucket with lots of head space, the airlock clogged, and at some point so much pressure developed that it blew the lid off the bucket and sprayed strawberry bits all over my closet. Something to consider for next time- use a blow off tube!
Great tasting. Friends loved it, definitely a beer to make again. |

Notes: Halcyon - slight biscuit, brighter and lighter in flavor than pearl, less sweet than Marris Otter
Crisp Pale Ale Malt - might be worth using to get more maltiness/body because of better milling and run-off (perhaps a mixsture with Halcyon?)
Fawcett Caramalt - will contribute dextrins (body) and foam stability - light caramel flavor
coffee malt - slightly nutty / toffee flavor
Fuggles hops for bittering hops
First gold hops for slightly spicy but smooth flavor hops
Northdown hops for slightly floral aroma hops
West Yorkshire Yeast for chewy, dry, moderate nutty and stone fruit flavor
blended with London Ale because it is also dry, but lends a little bit of richness, mineralness with a little bit of fruitness
Brewed on 9/4/16
After 7 days, dropped down to 1.024 (9/14)
After 9 days, dropped down to 1.022, bringing upstairs for it to warm up and go down further. (From 69F to 71F) (9/16)
Bottled on 9/25/16 (3 weeks after brew day)
Test Bottle 1 on 10/16
Test Bottle 2 on 10/23
Ready on 10/30.

Notes: Add 500mg potassium metabisulphite to 20 gallons water to remove chlorine/chloramine (as required).
Water treated with brewing salts to: Ca=110, Mg=18, Na=16, Cl=50, S04=279
(Basically Randy Mosher's ideal Pale Ale numbers with slightly less Sulphate).
1.25 qt/lb mash thickness. Single infusion mash at 152F for 90 mins. Mashout to 168F.
60-90 min fly sparge with ~6 pH water. Collect 14.9 gallons in the boil kettle.
Boil for 90 minutes. Lid on at flameout with 0 minute hops, start chilling immediately.
Cool wort to 66F and aerate well. Ferment at 66-68F until complete. Dry hop for 7-10 days.
Rack to brite tank (secondary), crash chill to near freezing (if possible), add 1 tsp of unflavoured gelatine dissolved in a cup of hot distilled water per 5 gallons of beer, and let clear for 2-3 days.
Package as you would normally. I keg and carbonate on the low side (around 2 to 2.2 volumes of C02) to minimize carbonic bite and let the hop/malt flavour come through.
If you prefer to use liquid yeast, either of these is an excellent choice as they are the same clean fermenting Chico strain as US-05:
Wyeast 1056 American Ale (Buy at: Amazon, MoreBeer, HighGravity, AiH, NB, OBK)
White Labs WLP-001 California Ale (Buy at: Amazon, MoreBeer, HighGravity, AiH, NB, OBK)
You'll need to use 5 packs/vials or make an appropriate starter. For more information see Chapter 6 of How to Brew and Appendix A of Brewing Classic Styles. |
