Notes: This is an experimental beer based on descriptions for Dwarven Stout from the Dungeons and Dragons 5e game and drier stout recipes. The aim is for an almost opaque stout that's strong but warming rather that alcohol forward with a thicker head that lasts into the tankard (may need a little wheat to truly get that effect). Flavor should be on the bready / malty side with a little complexity, balanced by hop bitterness. I grow my own Nugget hops, so I'm using that as the sole hop here to give a "local tavern" spin on the style.

Per the description, it should be about twice as strong as other ales, which were running about 3.7% ABV, so it's not as strong as it could be, but I also want to make sure it's not so strong that it can only be a special occasion brew.

Source water is from the reverse-osmosis filtered grocery store water.

Yeast in this case is Voss Kveik simply because I do not have temperature control on the fermentation, and being that this will be brewed in the middle of summer, the standing house temp is around 80 degrees, so I need a yeast that can handle the heat and higher alcohol.

Rogue Ales Shakespeare Stout clone
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.061 (15 °P) FG = 1.015 (3.8 °P)
IBU = 76 SRM = 48 ABV = 6.1%

Rogue’s Shakespeare Stout is a classic example of the style. Rogue describes it as, “Ebony in color with a rich creamy head, earthy flavor and a mellow, chocolate finish.”

Ingredients
9.12 lb. (4.14 kg) Great Western domestic pale malt (2 °L) (or similar)
1.45 lb. (660 g) Briess chocolate malt (350 °L) (or similar)
1.45 lb. (660 g) Great Western crystal malt (150 °L) (or similar)
1.34 lb. (610 g) Great Western flaked oats (2 °L) (or similar)
3.17 oz. (90 g) Briess black barley (500 °L) (or similar)
14.4 AAU Cascade pellet hops (60 min.) (2.25 oz./64 g of 6.4% alpha acids)
7.2 AAU Cascade pellet hops (15 min.) (1.13 oz./32 g of 6.4% alpha acids)
Wyeast 1764 (Rogue Pacman) yeast

Step by step
Mill the grains and dough-in. Hold the mash at 148 °F (64 °C) until enzymatic conversion is complete. Infuse the mash with near boiling water while stirring or with a recirculating mash system raise the temperature to mash out at 168 °F (76 °C). Sparge with 170 °F (77 °C) water, collecting wort until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 6.5 gallons (25 L) and the gravity is 1.047 (11.7 °P).

The total wort boil time is 90 minutes. Add the hops according to the ingredients list. Chill the wort to 60 °F (16 °C) and aerate thoroughly. The proper pitch rate is two packages of liquid yeast or one package of liquid yeast in a 2-liter starter.

Pacman ferments well at cold temperatures, but you can let it warm a little as fermentation progresses to ensure complete attenuation. Pitch at 60 °F (16 °C) and ferment until the yeast drops clear. Allow the lees to settle and the brew to mature without pressure for another two days after fermentation appears finished. Rack to a keg or bottle. Target a carbonation level of 2.5 volumes.

Notes: Might sub a high alpha British hop like Target for bittering. Feel free to use any British Pale Malt Golden Promise or Maris as well as any pale American malt

Here is the link to the original recipe by Ron Pattinson on the Shut up About Barclay Perkins blog:

http://barclayperkins.blogspot.com/2011/09/lets-brew-wednesday-1868-younger-no-3.html

Notes by Kristen England

Ingredients

Grist – I haven’t used Golden Promise in quite a long time so I decided it was about time. You can absolutely use Maris Otter or really any other wonderful Englishy malt you’d like. I have come to really like two very different types of pale malts. My very favorite is the MFB pale malt. I’ve found that if you had to have one single malt to do really absolutely anything in the realm of beer, this would be more than adequate. Bitter, IPA, Pils, etc. On the other end of the spectrum, my other favorite malt for different reasons (mostly cost and its ability to play second fiddle extremely well) is Great Western pale malt. You’ll find a massive amount of American breweries use it for everything. I think it is very nice and does a great job, just not as good at everything that the MFB pale malt.

Hops – This beer, as can be seen, is about 3:1 or 4:1 Czech: English hops. The English ones can really be anything but I’d stay with a low alpha variety for the amount of greenery you need to add in. As for the Czech, I used 100% Saaz. Czech Saaz at that. Pivní Filosof, Evan Rail, Alistair Reece and I had a great conversation just a week or so ago about the ability to make a big hoppy beer using 100% Czech Saaz. This is pretty much that beer. The thought is/was that one can’t do it. You just can’t get that bitterness. This, is entirely untrue. What you will find is that the bitterness is very different. Its much less harsh. Additionally, I find the aroma is much much higher on this beer (all low AA% hop IPAs even) simply due to the fact of the vast amount of hop that goes in. More essential oils and such. If you need another reason to make this beer, do so for that fact. A big, crisp, dry IPA thingy with a butte tonne of low alpha hops.

Yeast – I really like the dry Nottingham for this beer. It dries out extremely well. Finishes quick. Its cheap! That being said, use what you like. A yeast cake would be good for those of you that don’t do starters well. Its very important you get enough yeast into this bugger to dry it out.

Notes: This is a scaled down (and slightly adapted) historical recipe, or as close as I can manage anyway.
I won't be drinking this for about 3 months..the real thing was aged in the barrel for a year.
Originally, it would have had an ibu of 177! But, it was then aged before bottling and shipped for a few months. Even so, I'm eager to taste this ale.
It is not possible for me to replicate malt, water, yeasy and brewing/storing equipment exactly, so this will be a very loose replica.
This recipe is adapted from one I saw on a website, which in turn was quoting from a book
'The homebrewers guide to vintage beer'　2014. The author of the article and, I presume, the book is Ronald Pattinson.
I have adapted it to an export-type by making it stronger and have given more weight to late hop additions. It will still have very high ibus.
I have reduced the the original hop additions (90,60,30) and added aroma and dry hop additions, but apart from that it is very similar. Even the yeast is based on the same strain, Whitbread. 11g of S04. According to the yeast calculator this is an over pitch by 17%. I am hoping that this will actually help dry the beer out too, bringing it closer to the target ale profile.
Export IPAs would have also been exposed to Brett in their extended journey in barrels. This would have made the beer highly attenuated and dry. I cannot replicate this, but have instead added sugar in the hope that it will have a drying effect.

Brew day notes: mash temp very low 61-64... Pot was almost at the brim. Boiling water poured in, heat applied but not v effective. Low temp actually may work to dry it out too. Dunk sparge with 2 litres 80c water.
Pre boil gravity adjusted 1.098! Very fermentable wort. 8 litres final volume at OG 1.064. Might lack body, but will be very dry and spot on ABV for historical IPA. Let's see.
Day 5 of Primary fermentation gravity is 1.010...This is going to be an interesting brew. Already above 7% abv, so bang on for historical export strength IPA. I over pitched the yeast, but happily achieved the attenuation described in the recipe article.
4 day dry hop of Kent Goldings.
Day14 still 1.010.All done bottle tomorrow.
FG sample didn't taste like a modern IPA, more like a non-citrus hoppy barley wine, but with more conditioning and carbonation who knows what it will turn out like? Always knew this would be an interesting brew...
