Notes: I decreased IBU from base recipe, hoping for more acidity from the lacto.
Added dregs from a Bruery Oude Tart, Drie Fonteinen Gueze, allagash ghoulship, bfm bon chien.
14.5 brix @ 4.8 gal, will dilute to 5
4/20/2016: 1.008 grav, moderately sour, still some sweetness/malt in the background, pleasing.
9/10/2016: 1.005 grav, smells a tiny bit horsey, tastes pretty sour, not much sweetness anymore. putting on 2 pounds dry black currants` |

Notes: because it has the Vienna I mashed for an hour instead of steeping, this popped the top of my carboys, had to clean the hoses twice and had a 5 inch krausen ring around the top. I let it age in the 36 range in my conditioning kegs for 7 days after a 10 day fermentation, pulled off into a serving keg and taste notes: a very roasted flavor with high alcohol back end, the hops disappeared as expected but balanced the sweetness perfect with this yeast! carbonation can be lowered to keep the bite away, nice smooth sipper on a cold winter night.
I fermented down to 12 so a 7.88 on the alcohol
This is a winner!
notes: use 90 instead of 120 or less 120 for less of a roasted flavor if needed
you will need 2 yeasts for a 5 gallon container so 4 for this batch even with a starter, I made a 2000ml starter over night and put 4 inches of foam on top of each carboy |

Notes: 90 minute boil. Add soft sugar at beginning of boil. Add syrup at flameout. Chill to 65F (18C). Oxygen for 90 seconds. Ramp primary for 7 days up to 72F (22C). At near-terminal gravity (1.010), rack off primary yeast and drop temp to 60F (16C) for the next 5 days then crash at 50F (10C) until bright. Bottle prime with Simplicity at 32g/gallon. Cellar for 6 months.
Rochefort beers spend six to seven days in primary from 68 (20C) to 73 deg F (23C), three days in secondary at 46 deg F (8C), and 10 days bottle conditioning at 73 deg F (23C), according to BLAM.

Notes: 64 - 70 degree fermentation.
ferment for 2 weeks then dry hop for 5 days. transfer to keg. prime to 2.3v c02
This comes out bursting with flavor. Not real bitter on the front , the late addition hops make a very tasty IPA. It never lasts more than a week once its tapped.
I cant remember where I got the base recipe but I now it has won awards. |

| Notes: This has got to be an original light beer. Low abv, no other fermentables other than the molasses, final beer has almost no head, fair co2 sparkle with the 1 drop per bottle a noteable malasses flavor, though not overpowering, and the hops flavor and bitterness balances it out pretty well. Would definetly consider this a cooking beer, but it was fun trying to recreate this recipe, and did indeed produce a drinkable brew. You probably would not want to brew this in large quantities or all that often. |
