Notes: My attempt at a smoothie ale/pastry sour. Thanks to Hops and Gnarly's youtube channel and Oakshire brewing's guide to help me with this recipe.
-Mash around 150-152F
-60 min boil. Add marshmallow fluff (aka the dextrose in the fermentables) at flameout. Motueka seem like it could add to the fruity flavor. I have seen people use Cascade for this recipe. Really only 1/2 or 1 oz is plenty but I got a good deal.
-Pitch Philly Sour first. After 2-3 days, add whatever California Ale yeast you got and let it chill for probably up to 14 days total.
-Cold crash and add to keg with the puree. remember, this will dilute the overall ABV by quite a bit. 11lbs of puree = 1.2 gallons of volume. If I start at 9.77% with 4ish gallons of beer, I end at about 7.5% after adding the puree.
-Consider adding 2-3 sliced vanilla beans at day 7ish of fermentation
Notes: consider any puree from Fierce Fruit. I wanted to try peach, but it was out of stock. I think banana, guava or berry could be interesting. Also, Oakshire uses a more complex grain bill, almost like a NEIPA bill including white wheat. May consider next time, but I wanted to keep it simple like Hops and Gnarly for my first go. He also used Imperial's Voss Kveik, but at 68F which is interesting.
After first brew: My efficiency was pretty low. I think you need the alcohol content to help with overall mixture of the puree and beer. Final beer ended at 5.7%. Secondly, 4.75 gal post boil was too much. I maybe only lost .2 gal trub in the bucket so I bottled about 5 x 16 oz of just the remaining sour beer.

Notes: added some wort to primary, then sprinkled 2 packs yeast, then continued to rack the rest of the wort on it. Bubbling away 13 hours later.
A little sweet out of fermenter. Maybe cut the Special B and biscuit next time. See what happens after bottle conditioning. |

Notes: Tweaked this recipe to get what we wanted: https://www.homebrewsupply.com/thirsty-strongman-belgian-ipa-all-grain-recipe-kit.html
Lots of clove flavors from the saison yeast (varied fermentation in the high 70's to funk it up a little) and a higher-than-expected abv made the name of this beer obvious.
I tweaked the steeping efficiency and attenuation to reflect what we actually saw in the beer. The apparent attenuation was crazy high - but I'm not complaining. Not sure if it's the yeast, the high fermentation temp, the fact that there was mostly very light malts, or some combination of all those things. |

Notes: The base recipe is from Morebeer's Pliny the Elder kit (malts and whole hops). **Note, I added more DME to this calculator to get actual ABV of around 9.45% OG: 1.085, FG: 1.013. Use 0.5 lbs DME, next time I might skip the maltodextrin, the beer tastes slightly sweet but balanced. I also pitched 2x yeast vials.
Oak chips were aged six months on about 5oz of Evan Williams on a full packet (12oz?) oak. This provided a nice smokey flavor and means that I didn't have to sanitize the wood chips. Added oak with dry hop pellets. I feel the oak significantly zapped the hops flavor, beer is balanced or tilting sweet almost. |

Notes: basically was about to brew a West Coast AIPA and then thought I should use up all the Urquell slurry available so decided since the AIPA recipe called for 5 weeks of fermenting, cold crashing etc I may as well do it with Lager. I might sub out some American Ale malt with some Munich |
