Notes: (this is a tested recipe)

Showcasing one full pound of Simcoe hops.

Add corn sugar to boil at 35 min. Use pellet hops, without hop bags, for the entire recipe. End flavor is extremely juicy, with an orange juice + grapefruit juice character. Great for a breakfast beer! ;)

Bitterness decreases rapidly after brewday. This is a house-party beer that is good kegged or bottled and consumed within a month.

For full attenuation, pitch two packs of non-rehydrated US-05, with pure O2; ferment at 67F +/- 1F.

Notes: I have been fooling around with Vienna as an addition to Pale malt and Maris Otter for lighter ales for a while now and decided to make a pale ale with 100% Vienna as base malt. I couldn't resist adding some specialty malt and other adjuncts but the delicious Vienna should shine through.

Notes: This came out awesome; has received rave reviews.

Original source is here: http://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/300542/2016-pumpkin-ale.

Differences are:
1) Mine was a BIAB.
2) No mash out; just mashed in at 156 Deg (grains dropped temp by about 3 deg.)
3) I didn't adjust the water profile (I used Deer Park Spring Water.)
4) I scaled it down to a batch size of 4.0 gallons.
5) Higher fermentation temp.

Notes: Using Wells Bombardier mash schedule and yeast.

Hop schedule is Fullers.

Efficiency all whacked out on Brewersfriend..and yeast did not attenuate as much as I hoped. ABV worked out perfectly for schedule...right between Fullers ESB cask and bottle...5.7-5.8%.

I did the aroma/whirlpool hops in a hop sock and squeezed it. Out of the fermenter it looked and smelled amazing. No gelatin necessary...super duper clear.

Notes: BBA House Ale #1 is a refreshing and great tasting house ale that's designed to be simple, fast and in-expensive to make.

Read about No Sparge here:
http://brulosophy.com/2014/08/27/no-sparge-brewing-with-a-beersmith-tutorial/

Add to secondary fermentation after 5 - 7 days. Add put dry hops in a steralized hop bag and drop into your secondary fermenter, bump up your temperature to 20ºC (68ºF) and let it soak in the flavoures and clean up until the FG is stabile (about one more week).

*Optional*
Cold crash beer until it is below 10°C (50°F) and add gelatin solution. Continue cold crash to 0°C (32°F) and let sit for about 32 hours.

Notes: I've had a couple of "golden stouts" that I thought were very interesting and good, so my goal was to mimic that with my own recipe. I wanted to use golden/blonde ale as a general style, though I knew this was going to fall outside of some style guidelines.

I used lactose to provide some residual sweetness (think creamer in coffee), which worked really well I think. I tasted the beer after a few days in the keg (pre- coffee addition), and it had some sweetness but not too crazy. To add coffee flavor, I got some whole beans from a semi-local roaster (Wichita Spice Merchant). I spoke with one of the roasters there and he recommended "Brazil Maniqueira" (https://www.spicemerchant.com/product/brazil-mantiqueira/). I know next to nothing about coffee, so I would recommend using something you like or, if possible, consulting your local roaster. I added 8 oz of the coffee beans to a nylon mesh bag with some glass beads (to use as an anchor), and suspended the bag inside the keg with some unwaxed/unflavored dental floss. I tasted at 2 hours and was surprised how quickly the coffee flavor came through, but it wasn't quite where I wanted it. I tasted again at 4 hours and 7 hours, at which point I decided to pull the beans. The beer is pretty light so I didn't want to overpower the beer with coffee flavor. It ended up adding the desired roastiness and complexity that I was looking for. I'm super happy with this recipe.

Notes: Due to the honey in the Cider this could be considered a Cyser. Also, any Cider with a large ratio of honey needs to be aged 10 months or more; like Mead. This allows the "hot" alcohol flavor from the honey to dissipate.

Notes: **Batch 1**
This was a delicious fruit beer. I had a hard time locating real passionfruit, so I used a 100% juice blend. The label on the juice said it was 100% juice, but also had pear listed as an ingredient, so I'm not sure what the ratio of pear to passionfruit was. The mango had more presence than the passionfruit, probably because of the use of juice. Need to find real passionfruit for the next brew, or possibly use real pear.
*I found out later that commercial breweries use powdered passionfruit, which is available online. I'll try this for my next batch

Use 1lb fruit per gallon of beer. I pureed the mango and placed it in hop bags in the secondary. For my 5 gallons, it ended up being 6 diced mangos.

**Batch 2**
Used the same recipe, but tried using powdered passionfruit. I learned a few good lessons from this beer. The powder is surprisingly effective and when hydrated it smelled amazing. I added it at kegging which was a mistake. Next batch needs to be only powder without the fresh mangos. I'd like to try powdered passionfruit and powdered mango. The only drawback to this is that the powder is expensive. I used one pouch of passionfruit powder and it was $9 plus shipping. The biggest lesson I learned is that I need to stop using fruit juice. Its sugars are fermenting out to the point where I don't think it's adding much flavor and is really drying the beer out. Lots of changes to be made on the next batch.

**Batch 3**
Again I used the same recipe, but in keeping with the last few years I wanted to try and experiment with the best result of getting the fruit flavor into the beer.
In January I went to a local brewer's convention and met some people from Amoretti flavoring company. I tried their passionfruit and it was what I was looking for, so I bought a 25.4oz bottle of the puree. I used half of it while kegging, along with one pouch of the passionfruit powder I had leftover from last year. I skipped the mango altogether this year (I know, I know....)
I tasted the beer while I was checking my FG, and the powder that I added at knockout had only imparted a mild flavor in beer. It tasted slightly tangy, but not bad. The puree that I added at kegging really brought this beer to where I wanted it to be.
This beer is delicious, and finally fruity and light! Perfect summer beer!
