Notes: Ferment in primary for 7 days and transfer to secondary and let fermentation complete. Add Gelatin 3 days prior and cold crash in fridge to clear up beer.

The beer shows coffee brown with a creamy beige head. The nose is an interesting blend of malt and spicy hops leading on to a creamy, medium-bodied palate with a lot of malt, but the hops come in to balance it. The finish is the perfect blend of malt and hops.

This beer is mouthwatering with a hearty beef and vegetable soup.

Enjoy this one!

Notes: Smoked malt is actually smoked wheat.

Mash grains & sparge in a 6L pressure cooker. Add LME and brown sugar (the best aromatic brown sugar you can find). Add 0.25tsp sodium hydroxide powder and boil the wort down until you can begin pressure cooking. Boil under max pressure for 1-2 hours, then relieve pressure and add 0.25tsp citric acid. This will neutralize the hydroxide and will turn it into sodium citrate, which is a mild club soda flavor.
Add hops. Boil hops in maximum possible volume. Shoot for 50-60 IBU.

Filter wort through nylon bag to minimize hop debris.

Pitch large starter of US-05 and US-04 in equal amounts, start with open fermentation in a cold environment. Aerate periodically first 48 hours, rouse periodically for 10 days.
This will foam up your entire house.
Finish with WLP099 high gravity yeast.
Rack to secondary after 3-4 weeks fermentation for 1 week, then bottle condition.

Notes: Original recipe earned a Silver Certificate at the 2016 National Homebrewing Competition (37 points, one short of Gold), in spite of low carbonation.

1st place 2020 Amador County Fair.

Variations to consider:

Malt: Use only Munich for base malt (no Vienna) or replace Vienna with Pilsner. Use some midnight wheat (replace some carafa). Small amount of or caravienne or even smaller amount of melanoidin.

Hops: Additional flavor hops.

Yeast: WLP 833, Wyeast 2308, or Saflager S-23 or W34/70.

7 lbs. Two-row Pale
3 lbs. Munich
1 lb. Carapils/Dextrin
1 lb. Crystal 60L
12 oz. Special B
2 oz. Chocolate

.75 oz. Centennial 60 minutes
.5 oz. Cascade 30 minutes
.5 oz. Hallertau 5 minutes

.12 oz. Cinnamon stick - 5 minutes
1 oz. freshly grated orange peel - 5 minutes
1.2 oz. freshly grated ginger root - 5 minutes

Mashed in at 154 for 60 minutes. Batch sparge.

I tweaked a recipe from ChemE just a little to increase the ABV. I just finished one of these, and I have to say that this is probably the best beer I've made to date.

Notes: add matcha (in bags) before carb. (it should be crashed for 24hrs at this point). give around 24-36hrs contact time till package. use the same methods as you would with coffee. cold as shit and package fast.

20min hop addition is really Whirlpool. (10min active whirlpool, 10 min rest) then K/O.

Notes: Ferment primary for 7 days or until gravity is at desired FG. Rack beer into secondary directly on the frozen fruit. Sanitize fruit bags before adding and leave fruit whole (no crushing or blending) for sanitation.

Leave in secondary for 1-2 weeks then keg.

Notes: Brew steps are the same as Raspberry Wheat notes without the fruit. Secondary fermentation is up to you. It’s seems like a good idea to move it off the yeast cake after aggressive fermentation is done (after first 2-3days).

Notes: Based on Jalapeño Saison, but minus the jalapeño, and adding 2 lbs of peaches in the secondary. Hoping for a Festina Peche taste-alike...

Notes: This is the re-brew of a Pils that placed 3rd in the 2018 NHC first round in San Diego. The goal was something similar to Ayinger's Bavarian Pils. This beer was lucky enough to place 1st in the 2018 NHC Final Round.

Note: the Pils malt used in this recipe is Weyermann Barke Pils. Give it a try.

Additional fermentation/lagering notes: with the high pitch rate this beer completes primary fermentation (aka gravity stabilizes) in less than 10 days at which point you can keg it. On about day 7 or 8 I let it rise to a maximum of 62F to make sure it gets to terminal gravity. I lagered it in my keezer at 38F for 4-5 weeks, but if the brewday and fermentation went well it will taste very good sooner than that. If you use gelatin as I do it will taste great by 2 weeks in the keg.
