Notes: Overall Impression: An intensely flavored, solid, dark stout with many interpretations. Roasty-burnt malt with a depth of dark or dried fruit flavors and a warming, bittersweet finish. Despite the intense flavors, the components must meld together to create a complex, harmonious beer, not a hot mess – sometimes only accomplished with age.
Aroma: Rich, deep, complex, and often intense, with a pleasant blend of roast, fruit, hops, and alcohol. Light to moderately strong roast can have a coffee, bittersweet or dark chocolate, cocoa, black licorice, tar, or slightly burnt grain quality, sometimes with a light caramel sweetness or toasty maltiness. Low to moderately strong esters are often perceived as dark or dried fruits like plums, prunes, figs, black currants, or raisins. Very low to aggressive hops, usually English or American in character. Alcohol flavor is optional but should not be sharp, hot, or solvable. The balance between these four main components can vary greatly; not all need to be noticeable, but those present should have a smooth interplay. Age can add another dimension, including a vinous or port-like impression, but not sourness. Age can decrease aroma intensity.
Appearance: The color ranges from very dark reddish-brown to jet black. It is opaque. The head is deep tan to dark brown. Generally, it has a well-formed head, although head retention may be low to moderate. High alcohol and viscosity may be visible as legs.
Flavor: Like the aroma, a complex mix of roast, fruit, hops, and alcohol (same descriptors apply). The flavors can be intense, often more significant than the aroma, but the same warning about the balance varying wildly still applies. Medium to aggressively high bitterness. The maltiness balances and supports the other flavors and may have the qualities of bread, toast, or caramel. The palate and finish can be dry to moderately sweet, an impression that often changes with age. It should not be syrupy or cloying—aftertaste of roast, bitterness, and warmth. The exact age effects as in the aroma apply.
Mouthfeel: It should be full to very full-bodied, chewy, velvety, and luscious. The body and texture may decline with age. Gentle, smooth warmth should be present and noticeable as a background character. Low to moderate carbonation.
Comments: Sometimes known as Russian Imperial Stout or RIS. Varying interpretations exist, with American versions having more significant bitterness, more roasted characters, and late hops. At the same time, English varieties often reflect a more complex specialty malt character with a more forward-ester profile. Not all Imperial Stouts have a clearly ‘English’ or ‘American’ character; anything in between is also allowable, so it is counter-productive to define strict sub-types. Judges must be aware of the broad range of the style and not try to judge all examples as clones of a specific commercial beer.
History: A style with a long, although not necessarily continuous, heritage. Traces are the roots of strong English porters brewed for export in the 1700s and are said to have been popular with the Russian Imperial Court. After the Napoleonic wars interrupted trade, these beers were increasingly sold in England. The style eventually all but died out until being popularly embraced in the modern craft beer era in England as a revival export and in the United States as an adaptation by extending the style with American characteristics.
Characteristic Ingredients: Pale malt with significant roasted malts or grain. Flaked adjuncts are common. American or English ale yeast and hops are typical. Ages very well. It is increasingly used as the base beer for many specialty styles.
Style Comparison: Darker and more roasty than Barleywines but with similar alcohol. It is more complex, with a broader range of possible flavors, than lower-gravity stouts.

Notes: From (Andy Mitchell @ NB)

Bittering: Nugget (very very small amount)
Whirlpool: 50% Crystal, 25% Azzaca, 25% Centennial…total >90% of the hops used in the boil
Dry Hop: Simcoe, Galaxy, Mandarina Bavaria, Cascade, Citra, Chinook, tangerine peel

That dry hop is crazy, the largest portions are Cascade and Citra

If it were me, I would split the late kettle hop addition between a 10 min addition and a flameout / whirlpool addition. I think that would replicate what we do better because of how our process works. Even though we use the peel in dry hop (it’s a powder) you may have better luck using it at flameout if it’s fresh zest…or maybe both dry hop and flame out.

Notes: Lower ABV clone of Alaska Brown Ale
Key notes: Make a normal brown ale and add decaffeinated cold brew while kegging or bottling. Cold brew works better at serving temperatures as it will not separate. Adding right before packaging ensures you get a mild coffee flavor.

Ingredients: Noted above

Set-up Notes: Made yeast starter. Standard three vessel brew setup.

Mash: Targeted 60 min steep at 154 F. Preheated cooler mash tun and added water at 154F. 1qt/oz grain. Sparge with 170 F water for 40-60 minutes.

Boil: Very easy and quick to get to temp with burner and maintain. Stirred in hops (in muslin bag) just before the break to ensure even heat distribution. 60 minutes for boil. Added aroma hops (in muslin bag) at 45 minutes and stirred. Added orange peel slices at 55 minutes and stirred. At 60 minutes, I used tongs to remove hops. Shut off heat, covered with lid to move indoors, put in sink ice bath, removed lid. Orange peel slices will remain through primary fermentation.

Evaporated liquid: ~1 gal

Cooling: Took ~60 minutes

Primary: ~3 weeks at 73 F. With English ale yeast you should give it a slight swirl every week because of how fast it floculates.

Secondary: 1 week

Keg: Add cold brew first before siphoning. Cool to serving temp and carbonate.

Notes: Steps

1. 1-2 days before brewing make a 1 liter starter of 1.040 wort, and add your vial of WLP644. Let it sit at room temperature until use. Also make 1 liter of 1.040 wort, and pour OYL-605 into the starter. Incubate 24-48 hours at room temperature to increase the cell count.

2. Mash in at 145°f for 60 minutes; if hops have to be used, make sure to add the hops to the mash.

3. Sparge as normal.

4. Bring the wort to a boil, add salt and coriander, and then turn the heat off (no need to boil for more than a couple of minutes).

5. Adjust PH ~4.2 to limit growth Clostridium butyricum and other potential off-flavor bacteria. Not necessary, but this is a best practice suggestion. See How to Pre-Acidify for instructions.

6. Chill the wort down to 95°f, and transfer to a CO2 purged carboy or keg. Add the 1 liter of OYL-605 Lactobacillus Blend starter. Allow it to sour for 24 hours. No external heating is required.

7. After the souring phase, chill the soured wort down to ~70°F and pitch WLP644 Trois (boiling to kill the Lactobacillus before adding the WLP644 Trois is optional; see kettle souring). You can aerate if you feel necessary. After 2 weeks a stable gravity should be reached.

8. Rack or transfer off as normal to bottles or a keg.
