Notes: 90min boil. Add first hops with 60min left. Ferment 14 days, bottle condition at least 3 weeks. Slightly underoxygenate wort and ferment in the low to mid 70s for a bit more ester production.

Notes: FG of a degassed (vacuum) sample of Drakonic is 1.017 which would indicate an approx OG of 1.084 with 8.75% & WL 001 yeast.

Straight from Drake's website...
Malt: American 2-Row Barley, Weyermann Carafa Special 3, Simpsons Caramel Extra Dark, Simpsons Chocolate, Simpsons Roast Barley, Patagonia Crystal 35
Hops: Bittering – Warrior
Yeast: White Labs 001
Original Gravity: 19.9 degrees Plato
Alc/Vol: 8.75%
IBUs: 40

3/16/17 Brew day: actual mash temps performed are above and main mash Ph was 5.55. Batch sparge was 5.68 Ph. Resulting wort was 5 gal at 1.047 OG for a 65.33% efficiency. Final vol 1.5 gal at 1.106. 70 IBUs Following day read 1.75gal at 1.116 so I diluted with boiled RO water to 2.2 gal at 1.092 and 45 IBU's Added DAP nutrient and shook it up well. BTW Nottingham says on the packet that aeration is not required. I just didn't want a stuck ferment on such a big beer, haven't had one that I recall but I've been brewing 10 years.

3/20/17 Update: The ferment was pretty crazy, luckily it was a small volume in a large container. It tastes sweet but my sample reads 1.014 adjusted which means I have achieved 82% attenuation and 10.2% ABV. Biggest beer I ever made! Planned OG was 1.085 and 40+ IBU's with a BU/GU ratio of .48; I now have a .50 ratio. Not to goal but a good achievement. I would bitter this to 60 IBU's at least if I planned this OG and attenuation.

4/24/17 Update: FG is 1.013 which gives 10.32% ABV. At racking the brew smells somewhat reminiscent of Drakonic but I have little care if it is since it's a different beast. More roast I desire...Lots of booze and some esters present. Can't wait to get my ferm chamber all set up.

♥ DRINKABILITY: What did you like about it. Sample Date: 08.06.15 Not sure if I like it. It's light in color. It has a light maltiness and a sour after finish. Not sure why. Was it using Fuggles? Might be a better drink in a few weeks after aging.

♦ RECIPE NOTES: All-Grain - Irish Red (1st place HBT comp)
Recipe Type: All Grain
Yeast: Wyeast 1272
Yeast Starter: 1.25L x2
Batch Size (Gallons): 10.5
Original Gravity: 1.051
Final Gravity: 1.011
IBU: 21
Boiling Time (Minutes): 60
Color: Ruby red
Primary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): 10 @65*F
Secondary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): 14 @72*F
Tasting Notes: Roasty, malt forward but dry finish. Modeled after Smithwicks, the "gold standard"

My house Irish Red ale. It is best after 4 months of aging, so I brew 10 gallon batches and re-brew when the first keg kicks. The key to this style is malt forward but with a roasty, dry finish. Hop flavor is barely noticeable and there is no hop aroma. If you can lager, even better, use a clean lager yeast (eg. WLP840, WLP833). I only do ales though so I pitch Wyeast 1272, and ferment on the low end of the range to suppress ester production. Wyeast 1272 American Ale II is a nice, clean ale yeast that accentuates malt character. WLP051 is an exact sub for this yeast (it is the Anchor Liberty strain). If you use dry yeast, Nottingham or US-05 will work fine for this style, but if using the dry I recommend increasing the mash temp to 152*F.

This style should be crystal clear in the glass and shine ruby red when held up to a light. If you bottle condition, I recommend a two week secondary followed by pitching some English yeast like a half package of S-04 in the bottling bucket so the beer finishes nice and clear in the bottle.

Notes: Not my recipe, got this kit from Northern Brewer. Brewed 22 Feb, Dry Hopped 1 March, Racked 8 March and had my first sample 13 March. Beer was fully carbonated after only 5 days and has a clean, crisp grape fruity flavor. Have had good feedback from both family and friends!
