Butter Beer

It’s that time again already. I re-brewed this beer due to popular demand. I will be bottling this beer and saving most of it to impress my friends. I used 1 oz of Styrian Golding hops at the beginning and then used Saaz at flameout, changing the flavor a bit. SafAle 05 that has been washed from the original batch of Butter Beer. Starting to re-use my yeast and see if that helps make my beer cheaper and more streamlined.

Choco Porter

A great recipe I have held onto. I needed to get a darker beer made to keep in bottles to satisfy cravings. One of my classics and I expect it to come back soon. Using EKG and Cascade hops.

DuskFall

I have been a fan of Stone Dayfall for a while and I wanted to pay homage to this great beer. I found several great recipes and settled on something I think would hit a similar spot. Amarillo and Cascade hops to round out the flavor with orange peel and coriander.

Unfug Marzen

In the Spring spirit, I wanted to make a Marzen during a typically illegal time to brew them in Germany. Typically brewed in March, this lager is characterized by the full body malty taste and amber to dark brown color. I got this recipe from the award winning Munich Madness listing in Jamil Zainasheff and John J. Palmer’s book Brewing Classic Styles. Named for the German word for Mischief, I made a lot of it while drinking this beer.

Pilsner	5 lbs
Munich	4 lbs
Vienna	3 lbs

We Can Fly

I was inspired on a trip to San Diego for a wedding and thought I would try to make something new. This recipe is a cream ale with peanut flavoring added. The first, but not the last iteration of a new expression of creativity. I can’t wait to keep trying this one and making a new tasty beer. Cluster and Saaz hops for some mild flavor.

DopFiend V3

A beer I wanted to revisit, as there is not much locally that satisfies my palate. This roasty, rich and easy drinking beer is very hard to wait for. Brewed on a Saturday morning with hose water and an RV filter I always use. The water profile is that of local well water that I find very tasty. I think it lends a good flavor to darker beers.

Hops introduced at the beginning of the boil for 60 minutes in my Brewers Edge Mash and Boil. Starting gravity before the boil was 1.042. OG of 1.051. The brew went well and I was able to get this done rather quick. I definitely want to brew this again.

Type of Ingredient	Amount
Pilsner – German	10 lbs
Munich Caramel	4 lbs
Crystal 60	1 lb
German Carafa II	5 oz
Melanoidin	.5 lb

Toasty Bastard

I have wanted to brew for a long time and I haven’t had the time. I recently found out that one of my favorite beers was not going to be reproduced and I felt it was my duty to try and see how I could brew it myself. Chinook hops were added at 1oz at 75, and .5 at 60, 45, 30, and 15. I changed up my recipe with English Pale Malt and Crystal 120 for a lighter flavor. Oak Staves will be added to the fermentation and placed into the keg afterwards for good measure. I feel worthy.

Type of Ingredient	Amount
2 Row	6 lbs
English Pale Malt	6 lbs
Special B	1.75 lbs
Crystal 120	.5
Carapils	.25

Barrel Friendly Breakfast Cake Stout

I have a local friend I wanted to brew with and he wanted something special. A wide-awake version of my birthday cake stout that he could transfer to oak bourbon barrels. To this day he is still using the 5 gallon batch and stuffing coconut into it.

Update 4/27/2022 – Yep still adding coconut, now 3lbs of it is in a 1 gallon batch that is left.

Type of Ingredient	Amount
2 Row	8 lbs.
Carapils	1 lb.
Crystal 40	1.5 lbs.

Choco Porter

A great recipe I previously brewed. Using EKG and Cascade hops. It is a great flavor and has pleased the crowds around here in Orange. I rounded out the roasted barley and this came out quite interesting. This beer won an award for 3rd place in the Windsor Classic 2023 for Stouts and Porters on table 7.
