Notes

St. Paddys day lager. Adapted from Barclay Perkins original 1962 logs. They used up to 17% corn and mycozyme, (alpha-amylase).

Malt forward. Very clear yellow, crisp and good body, lasting head even when ice cold. Needs at least a month lagering.

  • Barclay Perkins logs show a Danish/Copenhagen yeast. I prefer S-23 yeast because it attenuates well and very clean but I've substituted 34/70 also. Just remember to ferment in the low temp range and do a good diacetyl rest with S-23 to avoid any "fruity" flavors.

  • A step mash at 129, 147° and 158° for 30 min each with mash out at 170° for 15 min brings out the best.

    -This beer really benefits from lagering, 4 weeks min, 6 weeks really cleans it up nicely.
