Notes: Recipe adjusted for bottling i.e. OG left 5 points below required to allow for extra provided by bottling sugar. Same applies to ABV - adjusted for extra 0.5% at bottling.
0 minute hops added in lid off hopstand in portions every 5 minutes (starting at flameout 90c) and ice is added every 5 minutes to reduce temperature by 5c for each addition with last at 70c.
Possibly mix lager and ale yeasts for fruity esters.

The motivation is to clone the Spaten Oktoberfest, one of my first favorite beers almost 20 yrs ago, in the incipient phase of my beer obsession.
This is my first lager. |

Notes: First time brewed 27.01.17. Intended for a 12 litre batch, but ended up with 10.5 litres. OG 1.072, FG 1.010. The M44 did its job well, but didn't get going until the temperature was ramped to 20 degrees Celsius. Total lag time was app 30 hours. Note to next time: higher pitching temperature and higher fermentation temperature. |

Notes: Hop finish goes on forever!
Primary fermentation for 8 days.
Keg 2.6G and force carbonate to ~2.2
Keg 2.6G with 1/4 Cup Corn sugar
Didn't get OG because I didn't have a thief; suspect ABV is lower than 5.9%
Protean haze, likely because I used only 1/4 tsp Irish Moss & boil was a more of a simmer |

OH man, I'm excited about the new recipe. =D
There are no notes from the ageing process I used last time. Briefly, . . .
I used my environmental chamber at work to effectively lager the brew (ale yeast), basically, drop the temp to about 52F, and added oak probably 3 times. Each time soaking in bourbon and adding all soaking bourbon, too. I probably added bourbon in 1-2 week, periods then removed, first the cubes, then the spirals I bought. All new wood. This time, I'll use the same wood, but I've had the cubes in bulliet rye whiskey for about two months now. I think, maybe Maker's. No straight Whiskey. I saved the bottle. This time, I'll shoot from the hip and age in my closet, but the Nov. temps should be nice for ageing (ave ~ 60F). Add oak around T-Day and age as long as I can wait, or until Xmas. Bottle on Dec 11th to have ready for Xmas. ONly 2 wks ageing :\ . . . New Year Beer ? |
