Notes: Shooting for about 6 gallons in boil. I haven't gotten my water mash/boil quantities dialed in...still kind of guessing.

Soak zest of 3 Grapefruits in vodka, in the freezer until secondary (all goes in).

Hibiscus flowers go in 1/2 gallon boiling water and steep 10 to 15 minutes. Strain and chill in sanitized container until ready to use.

Guessing on priming...will check temperature and volume, and adjust when ready. (And go on the low side, as per my usual issue with over-carbing.)

Add lactic acid to taste when racking to bottling bucket.

Tiny Rebel doesn't add oats to the mash, but I wanted a smooth and fuller mouthfeel to make the final beer a little juicier. I also wanted a slightly higher ABV than Clwb Tropica's at 5.4%

Notes: 2 yeast packs in a 1.25L 24 hr starter for EACH fermenter.

Accolades:
*2nd out of 30 American Lagers in the 2016 Indiana Brewers Cup (Score 42)
*1st in the 2017 NHC First Round (Score 42 from 1 Master)
*Silver in the 2017 NHC Final Round (Score 44 from 2 Masters)

The key to making this great is getting the FG to 1.008. The NHC Final batch finished at 1.008 and was noticeably better with more "pop" than my 1st Round batch (FG 1.010). A 60 minute+ rest at 146 or so is key, in my opinion.

Hybrid of Coors Banquet & Budweiser. Both beers use approx 70:30 barley:adjunct

Coors: 70% 2-Row and 30% Corn
Bud: 70% 6-Row and 30% Rice

This beer uses approx 90:10 6-Row:Corn. Decreasing the adjunct keeps the beer w/i style guidelines but it still actually tastes like beer. Most of my macro-hating beer snob friends like this beer, FWIW.

The batch brewed for NHC 1st Round in early Jan-17 was a 6 gallon batch and used WLP 840. This batch split between WLP840 and WLP850. Submitted bottles of WLP 840 to NHC Finals. 850 made a Heineken-like lager... a perfectly decent beer but the 840-half was more to-style. WY2007 also works well for this beer, and WY2035 is great but only has seasonal availability.

Notes: Step by Step
One week before brew day, get a WLP007 yeast starter going. When starter activity slows, decant the spent wort and add fresh wort.On brew day, crush the grains and place in two steeping bags. Steep the bags at 155 °F (68 °C) in 16 quarts (15 L) of water for 20 minutes. Rinse the grains with 2 quarts (2 L) of 170 °F (77 °C) hot water. Add dried malt extract (DME) and table sugar. Boil for 60 minutes, adding the hops at the specified times. Chill the wort to 70 °F (21 °C) and add water to achieve 5 gallons (19 L) of wort. Aerate the wort and add WLP007 starter (decanting the spent wort first). When fermentation slows, take a gravity reading and add WLP099 starter (if needed) to achieve a final specific gravity of 1.035. Keg or bottle carbonate, aiming for a carbonation level of 2.0–2.2 volumes of CO2. Once carbonated, condition at cellar temperature for several months. Flavor should peak at about one year and remain there for at least another year.

Tips for Success:
Pitching plenty of healthy yeast is paramount for a high gravity brew. When in doubt, pitch more. Be patient with the fermentation and conditioning process. Beer doesn't have a schedule. For bottle carbonation, pitch fresh yeast at bottling time if the WLP099 wasn't needed during the brew day. Give the bottles adequate time to carbonate. This beer needs to age, anyway. You'll thank me later for saving it until its peak. If you would like, try aging this beer in a bourbon barrel. How long to barrel condition is a matter of individual taste. Our club likes a full bourbon flavor, so we age the beer for several months. We don't worry about temperature. The barrel's alive, and varying temperatures allow the wood to expand and contract, imparting those wonderful oak and bourbon flavors.
