Notes: Base recipe inspired by Goose Island Bourbon Stout.
Note that with such large grain volumes, I had to use my 20 gallon equipment - too little headspace for my 10 gallon gear. Achieving proper final gravity requires extracting a very large volume (11 gallons) and boiling down to product 5.5 gallons at high gravity. This takes about 3 hours, but monitor gravity and remaining volume to determine end point.
Dough in with cold water, add 170F water (to reach 36 qts water added - 1.25 qt/lb rate), check temp and apply heat (if needed) to reach sach temp of 153F. Mash for 60 min or until iodine starch test indicates conversion complete. Mash out at 167F. Acidify sparge water, sparge to yield 11 gallons. Initial runnings 1.082, final runnings 1.040.
Boil for 3 hours, adding boiling hops and chalk/gypsum water agents. At 15 min to end of boil, add irish moss and insert chiller to boil kettle to sanitize. At 10 min, add finishing hops.
Chill, aerate and pitch yeast. Note that a large starter is required due to high OG. In this case, was pitched onto yeast from primary of previous batch. Due to the high gravity, I split this into two carboys as it was blowing off a lot of foam otherwise.
After 2 weeks, transfer to secondary, add oak spirals soaked in bourbon. After 2 more weeks, transfer to oak bourbon barrel, age for 9 months. Transfer back to carboy prior to bottling/kegging. |

Notes: Recipe essentially based off Steve's Amber Ale but with changes to hops and yeast. The traditional French Strisselspalt hops will hopefully impart a nice, light and spicy/floral aroma and dry-hopping with UK Bramling Cross should give off some blackcurrant notes to play off the slight phenols we should get from fermenting a little on the higher end (about 70 F is what we're aiming for). Should be a nice little beer... a taste of the French countryside with a bit of an American twist.
6/6/15: Added 1 oz Bramling Cross in muslin bag as dry-hop
6/13/15: Just racked and removed dry-hop bag. Took a sample and we got pretty great attenuation (got it down to 1.013 which is slightly better than the calculated 1.016). Color of the sample is fantastic. Smell isn't really spicy or citrusy despite the Cascade and Strisselspalt additions. Instead, the aroma is dominated by blackberry and lemon. We should be bottling it next weekend and will report back with more notes then.
6/20/15: Finally trying a sample of this... should be bottling it on 6/27, so we're a week behind but life gets in the way sometimes. Flavor is very jammy and follows the nose with a lot of black raspberry and blackcurrant notes. The dark fruit mingles with some caramel and earthy rye before finishing rather dry. Ester qualities are surprisingly minimal despite stressing the yeast slightly (fermenting a few degrees above its preferred temp), but the finished beer has a hefty body and a lot of unique and appreciable flavors. Excited to see how it conditions and how it "keeps" considering that is what a biere de garde should do! |

Notes: With the berry sensory notes that Sundew Ale (OYL-401) produces, it naturally fits many pale, fruity styles. I wanted to see how the yeast pairs with the flavors of a dark beer (dark chocolate, dried fruit, toffee, coffee, and roasty goodness!) and settled on a stout. By design, this recipe sits in the middle of various stout subclasses and with a few simple adjustments can be tailored to the personal tastes of the brewer. For example, mash with less grain at 148°F for higher attenuation and a drier finish to make a dry Irish stout, or increase the amount of oats to 10-20% to make an oatmeal stout.
The higher mash temperature gives body without being overly sweet, the dehusked and debittered Carafa III adds beautiful roasted color without the astringency, and the flaked oats help with a nice stable head. You may substitute Maris Otter for the Golden Promise. Other possible substitutions include honey malt or a medium crystal malt for the Golden Naked Oats (or whatever you prefer – it is your beer!)
First Gold reflects the more traditional English hop character and also adds some fruity character with a touch of spice. The Ariana hop choice brings a higher alpha acid percentage to the recipe, and also lends some blackcurrant notes. When added to the whirlpool, the hops don’t make the beer overly bitter or overpower the other aromas. For a more traditional English take, I’ve always been a fan of East Kent Golding or Fuggles.

YEAST
OYL-401 Sundew. The temperature range is relatively broad, from 64-78°F. We recommend slight overpitching or a fresh starter for more berry notes. Sundew will shine at fermentation temperatures in the mid-70s.
Even though the boil is 90 minutes, add the first hops at the 60 minute mark. I prefer this method, so that I open a 1 oz packet of hops and dump it into the kettle as opposed to weighing it out or ending up with partial packets lying around. |

Notes: Attempt to get a strong banana flavour to the beer, using a classic approach. The 30C and 40C rests are to induce maltase activity; the very high water:grain ratio helps with this, as maltase is more active in higher pH. The 64C rest for 30% of the mash serves to create a large pool of maltose for conversion in the 40C rest to glucose (by maltose); this ensures a high glucose to maltose ratio to increase production of isoamyl acetate during fermentation. Skipping the beta amylase sacc rest by bringing the whole mash to 72C (where alpha amylase is at work) will hopefully prevent too much additional maltose formation, though the beer may have a lot of body, as it is a high mash temperature.

Yeast: Safale S04
Meshing went bad somehow, the OG became way too low, about 20 points. Could be the reason of new sparging where we pumped water (74 degrees into the wort and continuously tapped the wort out to the boil kettle.
Next time, do it different! That is let sparge water stay for a while and tap out to kettle like we have done before.

Flödeslakning under dryga timmen, cirka 1 liter på 2 minuter. 30 liter totalt efter lakning,
Lactal, användes vid mäskning, drygt en kork för att få ner PH från 5.8 till ca: 5.3
Kokade ner ca 6 liter (från 30 till 24), något för lite för vårat recept vilket resulterade i ett lägre OG (skulle ha landat på 1.068). Kunde ha kokat ner mer men svårt att läsa av våran kittel hur många liter som finns i den..
Hopstand efter kok till mindre kittel och lät ligga i 30 minuter och efter det pump till kylning.
Landade på 24 liter i den nya koniska jäskärlet av plast. Tryckte in den i kylen med 17 grader som börvärde. Använde Safale S-05, Amerikansk ale istället för English.
2017-08-05: tappade om till betterbottle. Koniskt jäskärl ganska onödig att ha i kylen då den behöver vara monterad. SG på 1.016 redan efter 4 dagar. Fortsatt jäsning i 17 grader. |
