Notes: I only hit 5% ABV with and FG of 1.036. I think fermentation was too warm.
It tastes very good before bottle conditioning. Will be interesting to see how it turns out.
Carbonation on this one failed, I got no carbonation at all. |

Notes: Special Instructions / Notes:
Okay, so why is this called the Hell Imperial Pilsner? Because of that funny time number next to the Sparge line. This thing turned into the stuck mash from hell. Both lauter tuns completely jammed multiple times despite restirring, blow backs, and water additions. Why? Speculation has points to a combination of husk shearing due to the decoctions, beta-glucan "glueing" due to the Undermodfided malt with an inadequate protein/glucanase rest, and lastly just the mash being too thick. |

Notes: There is no way to make this recipe match the style as long as the FG requirement is 1.010+. What 3% beer finishes that high? Especially one that includes sugar.
I'm ignoring the SG requirements and going for ABV, IBU, and color only. |

Notes: Had to substitute the original American pale 2 row and American caramel/crystal 60L for Maris Otter Blend Pale Ale Base Malt & Caramunich Type 3 Malt Weyermann respectively. Not able to easily access the american style base malts. Some say european malts generally have more flavour anyway.
Plan is to start with 20lt of strike water for mash and do a small 4.5lt sparge to finish at 24.5lt pre boil volume.

Notes: Brew Day: March 11, 2014.
One boilover - my first!
OG was only 1.048, way below my estimate of min. 1.053...can't explain why. I was kind of drunk and pitched my yeast before extracting the sample for gravity measurement. Maybe that? Probably not? Did I remove too much yeast in my turkey baster? I'll find out if it doesn't ferment / ferment enough.
03/13: Vigorous fermentation!! The airlock I bought didn't have the bottom cut out so no CO2 wasn't escaping - it looked like it was about to blow. I considered a blow-off tube, but I had roughly 1.5 gallons of head-space and didn't think it was necessary. So I put a real airlock back in and the bubbling was very intense. Probably 2 bubbles a second!!
03/25: Bought 4.4 lbs of Canadian wild blueberries from Hartmans for $17. Pre-frozen. After much deliberation, I decided to heat them up for 15 mins at 170F. I let it cool to probably 35C and added it to secondary. I racked beer over top of it and inserted air lock. I probably lost about 0.2 lbs of berries during transfer (messy!). Im really excited to see how this turns out.
Expectations: Hopefully wheat extract pairs well with the blueberry, amber LME and crystal 40L will hopefully add some sweetness and colour, flowery and spicy notes from cascade hops, 3787 yeast will impart some complex fruity esters and phenolics as usually seen in Belgian dubbels or triples, finally 4.4 lbs of blueberries in secondary for two weeks should hopefully impart a subtle to moderate blueberry taste and colour.
Bottled on April 6, 2014. Forgot to take gravity reading - stupid me! I expect it will be 5.0% based on OG, but I can't be sure of the attenuation.
Final bottle on 07/20:
Last bottle is still overcarbed.
Appearance: Deep dark dirty purple. More brown than purple. Probably because of the crystal malt. Dont use next time. Long lasting head, very bubbly.
Aroma: Primarily fruity, slight blueberry.
Taste: Hard to get over the carbonation but notes of dark fruit. Very crisp as a result of the carb.
Mouthfeel: Very light body, very prickly.
Overall: Besides the overcarb, not a terribly bad beer. Ease up on the crystal next time. No amber next time either. Just wheat and 2-row. It makes it too complex, and not the good type. |
