Notes: # The Haka
Brew club challenge was to make a beer using 100g of Rakau and no other hop apart from first addition bittering hop. No other restrictions on malt bill or style. As Rakau are New Zealand hops, I chose to do a Black IPA in reference to the New Zealand rugby team which are known as the all blacks. They have a famous pre-match tribal dance known as the Haka (Ka Mate Haka) and hence the name of the beer.
##Malt
The mash was started with Golden Promise and flaked barley for one hour. Other dark grains added at end of mash: chocolate wheat, roasted rye and de-husked roasted barley. All of these dark malts are known less harsh than standard dark malts. The rye should add a little spiciness to the beer. I wanted it to be as dark as possible while still allowing the hops to be the main event to terms of taste.
##Hops
Magnum was used to bitter. I wanted it to be bitter as it's an IPA but not to be too assertive. 40g Rakau were added at whirlpool while 60g were added as dry hop.
##Yeast
Fermented with US05 for a dry crisp finish at 22C under 10psi with fewer esters. As this was a 6.5% beer more than one pack was required (I only had one pack), I did 24h 1L starter. Fermented at 22C as I didn't have much time left after receiving the hops! |

Notes: Hazy an citrus aromatic beer. The late addition of citrus & tropical hops gives that characteristic aroma. With the addition of carared you can obtain a beautiful orange colour. White and persistent foam close the perfect circle of this astonishing beer |

Old method:
2.1. Mash as usual. I mash at 65c for an hour and sparge with 80c water.
2.2. Let wort temp drop to around 40 - 45c.

Candy sugar addition.
