Notes: My attempt at a smoothie ale/pastry sour. Thanks to Hops and Gnarly's youtube channel and Oakshire brewing's guide to help me with this recipe.

-Mash around 150-152F

-60 min boil. Add marshmallow fluff (aka the dextrose in the fermentables) at flameout. Motueka seem like it could add to the fruity flavor. I have seen people use Cascade for this recipe. Really only 1/2 or 1 oz is plenty but I got a good deal.

-Pitch Philly Sour first. After 2-3 days, add whatever California Ale yeast you got and let it chill for probably up to 14 days total.

-Cold crash and add to keg with the puree. remember, this will dilute the overall ABV by quite a bit. 11lbs of puree = 1.2 gallons of volume. If I start at 9.77% with 4ish gallons of beer, I end at about 7.5% after adding the puree.

-Consider adding 2-3 sliced vanilla beans at day 7ish of fermentation

Notes: consider any puree from Fierce Fruit. I wanted to try peach, but it was out of stock. I think banana, guava or berry could be interesting. Also, Oakshire uses a more complex grain bill, almost like a NEIPA bill including white wheat. May consider next time, but I wanted to keep it simple like Hops and Gnarly for my first go. He also used Imperial's Voss Kveik, but at 68F which is interesting.

After first brew: My efficiency was pretty low. I think you need the alcohol content to help with overall mixture of the puree and beer. Final beer ended at 5.7%. Secondly, 4.75 gal post boil was too much. I maybe only lost .2 gal trub in the bucket so I bottled about 5 x 16 oz of just the remaining sour beer.

Notes: En velhumlet versjon av en klassisk California Common, tørrhumlet med en solid dose Amarillo for å tilføre et friskt sitruspreg i balansen av karamell, treverk og urter som denne stilen typisk har.

Denne oppskriften er beregnet for å treffe disse volumene:
26,5 L vørter i kokekjelen etter endt mesking og skylling, før koking
22,5 L vørter i kokekjelen etter koking
20 L vørter i gjæringskaret etter overføring fra kokekjelen

Beregning av vannmengder vil være avhengig av bl.a. knusingsgrad på maltet, hvor lenge man lar det renne av før man stopper avsiling etter skylling, fordampingsgrad under koking, osv. Anslagsvis kan du til denne oppskriften meske med 16 l vann og skylle med 14,4 l vann på 77 grader. Evt. kan du justere forholdet mellom meske- og skyllevann så lenge den totale vannmengden er den samme.

Mesking på 66 grader i 60 min. Gjør gjerne en utmesk på 77 grader i 5 min hvis du har mulighet.

90 min kok.

Kjøl ned vørter til 15 grader før pitching av gjær. Gjæring på 16 grader til stormgjæring begynner å roe seg ned (typisk etter 3-5 dager). Øk deretter til 20 grader og hold til tapping (totalt 14 dager gjæring). Tørrhumling fra dag 6. En coldcrash - å sette ølet kaldt (gjerne 2-4 grader hvis man har mulighet) - kan gjerne gjøres et par dager før tapping for å mer effektivt få tørrhumlen til å bunnfelle.

Kan med fordel lagres kaldt et par uker etter karbonering før konsum.

Notes: Formerly known as "Life of Pi-rate (LiPi)"

Batch #5 - 9/11/19 - (Eff. 59%, Att. 73%, ABV 7%, Bat. Vol. 22L)
- Switched to US05 yeast x3 packs dry pitched at 28C into aerated wort, had to rush out and didn't have time to re-hydrate and cool to normal temp.
- Simcoe 10min switched to cryo from pellet to be 8 IBU's.
- Simcoe 0min switched to cryo 10g from 15g pellet.
- Simcoe dry hopped switched to 30g cryo from 50g pellet, 25 AAU's.
- Columbus dry hopped switched to 30g cryo from 50g pellet, 23 AAU's.
16/11/19 - SG:1019 , dry hopped.
21/11/19 - FG:1019, cold crashed, tastes good.
23/11/19 - Kegged and carbed at 30 psi for 2:45 min.
30/11/19 - Tastes dank and resinous, like an old school DIPA, great stuff
22/12/19 - Finished the keg and it was a good batch, plenty of old school IPA hop flavours and no real hint of the ABV, Tim loved this one.

4/1/19 - Batch #4 - (57% Eff.)
- Switched Maris Otter to Gladfields American Ale Malt
- Switched to M44 West Coast Ale yeast (x3)
- Changed water profile to new (IPA/DIPA profile) upping sulphate to near 300ppm
- Batch volume at 20.5L, next time mash 32L (not 31.5)
- Temp. raised slowly to 20.C over the first few days.
19/1/19 - Returned from 2 weeks away to dry hop in a steel rocket, upped the Simcoe & Mosaic to 50g from 45g for convenience.
21/1/19 - FG: 1022 (higher than 1016 predicted.) Cold crashed to 1.C, tastes quite fruity but still a touch harsh. I'd like to dry hop longer next time. ABV. 7%
22/1/19 - Kegged with new better fit transfer line to minimise O2 exposure, carbed at 30psi for 2min30sec and left to sit at 30.
27/1/19 - Tasted on Hottest 100 Day, very hoppy, slight alcohol hint on the back end.

22/4/18 - Batch #3 (53% Eff.)
- Water profile "Light coloured & hoppy" (Gypsum 4g, Epsom salt 1g, Calcium chloride 3g)
- Switched from US-05 to White Labs San Diego Super Yeast WLP090 with a 1.1L starter 115g of DME for 24hrs, decanted down to 800ml then poured at 23C after aeration with drill.
29/4/18 - SG:1014 and dry hop added
16/6/18 - Tasted and smelled great.

19/11/17 - Batch #2 (My System)
- Low Colour Floor Malted Maris used, rolled oats added
- Substituted Riwaka for Simcoe
- Added 1L of water post mash to adjust for lost volume in extra grain
- Pitched x2 packs of rehydrated yeast in 100mL water/100mL wort mix for 1 hour
- Really low efficiency (51.5%)
28/11/17 - SG: 1014, dry hopped
- Keg was carted all round the east coast for 2 weeks and still tasted great, love this beer, no hint of how strong it it is, this thing is an assassin.

30/7/17 - Batch #1 (At Will's house)
- Bottled using drops into clear 1.25L bottles. Tasted great out of the fermentor. 59% efficiency.
12/7/17
- Tastes similar to intended with heaps of tropical fruit in the aroma but not a huge resin hop hit.

Notes: Second time brewing to this recipe. No time to make a starter, used two vials of WLP001.
Tasters results are in - great response! Most say "smooth bitterness", "citrus aroma/flavor"
Balanced, no distractions from malt or yeast.
Same recipe that won first place in local tasting competition in October 2013.
Now a permanent spot in the portfolio of regulars.
