Notes: Overall Impression: A golden, mildly bitter, highly attenuated, and well-carbonated Trappist-style ale, showing a fruity-spicy Trappist yeast character, a spicy-floral hop profile, and a soft, supportive grainy-sweet malt palate.
Aroma: Medium-high Trappist yeast character, showing a fruity-spicy character along with medium spicy and floral hops, enhanced by sweet orange and coriander spice additions. High grainy-sweet malt backdrop, with medium-light honey quality. Medium spicy, yeast-driven phenolics.
Appearance: Gold color. Slight haze, with a moderate-sized, persistent, billowy-white head with characteristic lacing.
Flavor: Fruity, hoppy, bitter, and dry. Initial malty-sweet
impression, with a grainy-sweet soft malt palate, and a dry,
hoppy finish. The malt provides a honeyed biscuit impression. Moderate spicy and floral hop flavor. Orange, apricot, yellow apple esters. Moderate pepper, and clove phenolics. Bitterness rises towards the dry finish, with an aftertaste of medium malt, moderate hops, and a yeasty character.
Mouthfeel: Medium body. Smooth. Soft, with medium carbonation, is balanced. Mild alcohol warmth. |

_____________________________
Adjunct addition notes:
* Lactose can be added at flameout. ***NOT HERE
* For the mango, plan to add after high kräusen. I buy frozen mango chunks, thaw at room temperature, and then blend into puree. ..6lbs ...**BUT NOT HERE
* Vanilla bean should be prepared in a tincture: split and scrape the bean(s), add to a small glass, and top with very small amount of vodka (enough to cover the scraped bean and filling). Add the vanilla bean tincture and coconut with the dry hops: I usually put them all together in a muslin bag. *** BUT NOT HERE
* Once fermentation is complete, cold crash for 24 hours and then package.

Notes: Kept on pressure for the most part following kegging.
Was fighting cold ambient temperatures during mashing, which probably helped with the overshooting of the starting mash temperature.
Had trouble with cooling the wort because I couldn't get water through hoses. In the future, I will be storing my hose inside the house during the winter.

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.
