Notes: Made this before. Can't achieve lager temps so I use US-05 and ferment around 62-64 f then raise up to about 70 after 10 days, then put in my fridge and bring down to about 42 F for 2 days. Bottle, and let sit for a month before drinking. I used clarity ferm, and this stuff came out clear as can be. If you want less hop presence then omit the 10 min cascade addition. The 1 oz of blackprinz is to add color, but no real harsh flavor.
Can't get yuengling in California... So this is the next best thing.
Added blackprinz and vienna malt to try to get the color and flavor of Yuengling Lager. .
Awesome lawnmower beer. Wish I could make 10 gallon batches of this at a time |

Notes: Basic American Hefe with German hops.
Turned out great, FG 1.012. A bit on the bitter/hoppy side, which is not a bad thing, but not as refreshing as it should be. Tettnanger can be a real spicy hop, and it is showing through. The bite is not bad, and I think that will mellow out a bit after a couple weeks. Next time I will scale back the hops at least 25%.
More wheat malt and less Pilsner might also give it more grip, the body is a bit light. |

Notes: Mash pH was too low at 5.03
I used 6 teaspoons of Bali Blue Moon coffee from Island Roasters, a local coffee shop in New Smryna Beach, FL. It's roasted at Light Vienna, which I believe is somewhere on the medium roast spectrum. I had it coarse ground and added it directly to a fine mesh bag, added a sanitized spoon for weight, and added it directly to the keg while I cold crashed and carbonated.
It was in the keg for 48 hours at 15psi before removal. I think the keg pressure helped extract the coffee flavor. I used unflavored dental floss tied to the string of the bag so that I could retrieve the bag when I was ready.
After talking with other brewers about this beer I think I may have had a little luck on my side in using ground coffee instead of cold brew coffee. Next time I'll probably get a good quality fresh cold brew from somewhere nearby and add it to the keg to taste. Just my 2 cents. |

Notes: Light American Lager, brewed with Ale yeast.
The results are in on this beer! My advice go with the Wyeast 1272 American Ale II. The Safale US-05 tastes watered down and thin compared to the American Ale II. We did a little tasting party with these two. Everybody (novice and experienced drinkers alike), resoundingly preferred the batch fermented with American Ale II. Damn this is a great beer! |
