Notes

URBAN FAMILY BREWING COMPANY
LIMESICLE (5 gallons/19 L, all-grain) OG = 1.074 FG = 1.020 IBU = 14 SRM = 4 ABV = 7.2%


This is a “milkshake” IPA using lactose and lime zest. Head brewer Isaac Koski says the dry hop addition in this beer rotates among citrusy hop varieties, including Citra, Simcoe, and Motueka: “These are interchangeable in my mind based on availability and how they are smelling.”

INGREDIENTS 11 lb. (5 kg) 2-row pale malt

2.5 lb. (1.13 kg) flaked oats

1 lb. (0.45 kg) rice hulls

4 oz. (113 g) acidulated malt

1.75 lb. (0.79 kg) lactose powder

4.75 AAU Centennial hops (60 min.) (0.5 oz./14 g at 9.5% alpha acids) 4 oz. (113 g)

Citra hops (dry hop)

1–2 limes, zested 1 vanilla bean, split and chopped

White Labs WLP002 (English Ale) or Wyeast 1968 (London ESB Ale) or substitute favorite English strain 3/4 cup (150 g) dextrose (if priming)

STEP BY STEP

Mash in with a standard mash at 1.25 quarts/pound (2.6 L/kilograms) at 155°F (68°C) until fully converted, about 60 minutes. Sparge with enough water to collect 6.5 gallons (24.6 liters) of wort in the kettle. Boil 60 minutes, adding sole hop addition at the beginning of the boil. Add the lactose powder to the boil at any point. Chill, then ferment at 67°F (19°C) with your favorite English ale strain. On brew day, zest the lime and chop the vanilla bean. Add vodka to bowl to just cover the zest and bean, then cover with plastic wrap. Let soak in vodka during active fermentation. Dry hop in secondary with a citrus-forward hops such as Citra, but you can substitute in Simcoe, Motueka, or another favorite citrusy hop. Add tincture of lime zest and vanilla bean at the same time as the dry hop addition. After achieving the desired dry hop character, cold-crash and package.
