Notes: Based on what Vinnie divulged, this is how I'd go about banging out a 5 gallon batch (don't think you'd want 10 gallons of this, hehe...) basing it on the requirements for an Oud Bruin...
Size: 6.0 gal
Efficiency: 80.0%
Original Gravity: 1.063 (1.040 - 1.074)
Terminal Gravity: 1.013 (1.008 - 1.012)
Color: 21.51 (15.0 - 22.0)
Alcohol: 6.58% (4.0% - 8.0%)
Bitterness: 22.1 (20.0 - 25.0)
Ingredients:
11.0 lb American 2-row
1.0 lb Caramel Malt 40L
1.5 lb Vienna Malt
0.5 lb Carafa Special® TYPE III
1.0 oz Perle (8.2%) - added during boil, boiled 45.0 min
Of course, add your whirlfloc and yeast nutrient. (This isn't an overly thick beer, we'd want to dry this out as much as possible.)
Nice starter of White Labs WLP530 Abbey Ale, or pitch at least two vials, and aerate the crap out of it. Hit it with O2 if you have a tank/diffusion stone.
Give it about 3 weeks in primary, keeping it above 70 degrees for the yeasties to do their thing. Rack when it hits 1.012.
Here's where I get fuzzy. Vinnie says that when this comes off to secondary, he removes the yeast. I'm assuming he's doing that by pasteurization? Either way, I doubt it'd ruin the beer if it's just racked as you normally would.
You'll need a bigger carboy than 5 gallons, to accommodate the cherries, so grab yourself a 6.5 gallon one.
Into secondary, dump a package of Brett, and give it another couple of weeks.
Into secondary, dump 2.0 lb mashed cherries, as well as a package of Belgian Sour Mix 1. For a full effect, soak 1oz of oak chips in some pinot, and add those to the secondary as well. Let that chill for 2-3 months.
Rack to a keg, stash for 6 months before carbing.
Hugely labour intensive beer, and man, if I tapped that keg after a year or so and it tasted like arse, I wouldn't be a happy bunny! |

Notes: Procedure
Mash at 65 degrees C for 60 min.
Sparge to bring water volume to 27-28L Pre-boil.
Boil for 60 min with hop additions starting at 60 min - see ingredient list for hop addition timings. At flameout, drop the temperature down to 80 degrees C before adding the Whirlpool hops.
Ferment 18-20 degrees raising to 22 degrees at end of ferment.
Refreshing and hoppy, yet with sufficient supporting malt. An American adaptation of English pale ale, reflecting indigenous ingredients (hops, malt, yeast, and water). Often lighter in color, cleaner in fermentation by-products, and having less caramel flavors than English counterparts. There is some overlap in color between American pale ale and American amber ale. The American pale ale will generally be cleaner, have a less caramelly malt profile, less body, and often more finishing hops.
Aroma: Usually moderate to strong hop aroma from dry hopping or late kettle additions of American hop varieties. A citrusy hop character is very common, but not required. Low to moderate maltiness supports the hop presentation, and may optionally show small amounts of specialty malt character (bready, toasty, biscuity). Fruity esters vary from moderate to none. No diacetyl. Dry hopping (if used) may add grassy notes, although this character should not be excessive.
Appearance: Pale golden to deep amber. Moderately large white to off-white head with good retention. Generally quite clear, although dry-hopped versions may be slightly hazy.
Flavor: Usually a moderate to high hop flavor, often showing a citrusy American hop character (although other hop varieties may be used). Low to moderately high clean malt character supports the hop presentation, and may optionally show small amounts of specialty malt character (bready, toasty, biscuity). The balance is typically towards the late hops and bitterness, but the malt presence can be substantial. Caramel flavors are usually restrained or absent. Fruity esters can be moderate to none. Moderate to high hop bitterness with a medium to dry finish. Hop flavor and bitterness often lingers into the finish. No diacetyl. Dry hopping (if used) may add grassy notes, although this character should not be excessive.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light to medium body. Carbonation moderate to high. Overall smooth finish without astringency often associated with high hopping rates.</F_S_PROFILE>
Pale ale malt, typically American two-row. American hops, often but not always ones with a citrusy character. American ale yeast. Water can vary in sulfate content, but carbonate content should be relatively low. Specialty grains may add character and complexity, but generally make up a relatively small portion of the grist. Grains that add malt flavor and richness, light sweetness, and toasty or bready notes are often used (along with late hops) to differentiate brands.

Notes: brewed this once and its close but not quite union jack. The hoppin schedule is so complex; I believe only firestone can replicate it with any consistency. good beer though. Don't hesitate to brew it
Giiven todays prices for grain and hops; you can look upwards of $50 to brew it. |

Notes: The aim in this hop regime is to try to emulate the flavours of the classic modern American APA hops, but have pulled back on the last minute additions of Citra, that I found imparted a cat pee funk when dry hopped in my Emerson's Pilsner clone. All late hops are done in bag to minimize hop residue in the brew. 1g of irish moss before end of boil. Brewed 2 Aug 2015. Yeast re-hydrated 2 hours before pitching. Yeast pitched at 18oC. Bubbling in air lock after 6 hours. Fermented in glass carboy.
End of Week 3: Taking along time to ferment out (G = 1016), probably due to the lower than anticipated fermentation temp of 12-14 dC. In week one the beer looked like it had separated: beer on top, then a layer of yeast, then more beer, then trub-like solids 1/4 way down. Raised temp to 18dC and yeast multiplied like crazy and bubbling increased. Lead to an excessive amount of gnarly looking krausen which only dropped out in week 3. Still, the beer tastes promising - slightly yeasty but clean enough and starting to clear. Will dry hop 15g Liberty for 3 days before bottling end of 4th week.
Final gravity 1016 - learned above problem possibly due to low mash temp (about 63 degrees C). Tastes fine. Est 16L. Bulk primed with 100g dextrin. |
