Notes: Full-bodied with extreme hop character, the explosive citrus, pine and grapefruit resins are barely balanced by a huge 10% ABV.
Featuring three hop shots and 19oz of hops from nearly every iconic American favorite; Amarillo, Columbus, Cascade, Simcoe and Centennial...impressionable palates beware!
Brewing Notes:
- A yeast starter and 2-stage fermentation is highly recommended.
- 6 gallon batch size, to accommodate the wort losses due to the ridiculous amount of hops
- 90 minute boil
- 6 lbs Pilsen malt syrup (15 min late addition)
- 1.6 lbs Corn Suger (0 min late addition) |

Notes: Add belgian candi syrup before the boil, taking kettle off heat.
Secret Ingredient #1: I chose Belgian Candi 40L in recipe to meet style SRM requirements (it's all my LHBS had). For a second batch I plan to try 80L or Darker.
Secret Ingredient #2 Yeast: I usually go with dry yeast. they're more affordable for small batch. Liquid seems to be proper for this style though. Safbrew BE-256 Abbaye was no less expensive than a good liquid yeast but I figured I could use the pack for 2 small batches.
If scaling to a larger batch I would try Wyeast 1214
Belgian Abbey Style Ale, Wyeast 3787 Trappist High Gravity yeast (Westmalle) or Wyeast 1762 Belgian Abbey Style Ale II (Rochefort).
Yeast Temps: Style suggests starting an abbey yeast at 64f up to 68f for 48hrs to minimize fusels. At 2/3 sugar break move it to 74-78f. The yeasts could increase to these temps on its own also. This is something I will attempt by moving out of my basement to warmer rooms at about 1.046 gravity or sooner.
Optional: Because this is a high gravity recipe I made a Yeast starter using 6g of GoFerm and 5g yeast. I have this on hand for Mead making.
Lower steep/mash temp (148) should get you a lower dryer gravity
Take note of higher priming sugar. Style suggests higher volume.
Bottle condition recommendations are longer. Minimum 6 weeks, but better at 2 months.
Other notes:
The wheat is added for mouth feel and head retention.
Any NOBLE HOP could be used: Halltertau, Saaz, Hersbrucker, Styrian Golding, Willamette, East Kent Golding
Other malts to consider Biscuit and Aromatic. |

Tasting Notes: 10/20/2014:
This beer should have aged more before I kegged it. It sat for 3 months before kegging. It has good head and retention. Mouth of very rounded caramel and buscuity taste. Very subtle notes off the nose of earth and herbal. In the end slight alcohol taste that I am sure would would mellow with just a bit more time. |

Notes: Ferm temp 64 degrees. Let warm once fermentation is well underway.
Starter 1.5 liters.
Batch 01 did not meet gravity (undershot by 6 points). As a result, hops became dominant. Not bad but I want the malty balance. Will adjust next batch to get proper gravity. I could sell this batch as an altbier. Base recipe adjusted, ensure gravity target (1.056) met. |
