Notes: The absolute most the small kettle can handle. 12.5qts strike water 5.75lb grain. Had to extract a cup of water, so with this much grain best to leave at 12qts.
Squeezed grain bag, to get pre-boil vol of 9.9qts (<2.5gal).
NEIPA - 8.7gal total mash water. |

Notes: Brew date: 06/08/2014. I hit my target OG of 1.066! The battery of my thermometer stopped working as I was about to pitch my yeast, so I can't be sure of the pitching temp. I waited at least an hour, so I'm sure it went down to room temp. I set up my swamp cooler with sanitized water and four frozen bottles. I will plan to swap out these bottles every 8 hours or so.
Yeast: US-05 is an American ale yeast for well balanced beers with low diacetyl (butter) a very crisp end palate.
Malts: Mostly light extract with some amber for colour and pronounced maltiness. Carafoam for body and head retention. Crystal 40 for slight caramel notes, colour and balance with the high IBUs. Had extra Abbey malt laying around, so I thought I would give it a whirl. Expect honey and complexity, hopefully it adds to the balance.
Hops:
Zythos (60/30/15/0/Dry Hop) Distinct tropical (pineapple) and citrus tones with slight pine and spicy characteristics. Newly developed, best for hoppy west-coast style IPAs.
Domestic Hallertau (45/15/0)
06/14: Found a crack in the lid of my primary. Checked FG and it was 1.018, so I will transfer to secondary and dry hop. Initial sample is sweet, slightly sour, not that good. Mind you, it is 930am, maybe that plays a factor. Is 1.018 too high for a FG? Perhaps there is too much sugar left, adding unneeded sweetness. The other HoYB had the same OG/FG and tasted great, so I'm not too worried.
Bottling Day: 06/24. 3.45 oz of corn sugar (3/4 cup).
An American-style India Pale Ale, dry hopped in the west-coast style with distinct tropical and citrus notes. However, it has a twist with slight pine characteristics, reminiscent of the Canadian wilderness.
Tasting notes on 07/24: Pours a good thumb of head. Colour is a deep amber, almost a brown. Not as light as I thought it would be. Mostly tropical fruit on the nose with slight grassy and piney notes. Like walking through a dewey forest early in the morning. Sharp bittering up front on the tongue. Full bodied and a very strong malt backbone. Fairly sweet and notes of caramel. It's hard to get to detect any fruit. Odd. I remember it tasting better a couple of bottles. Can the taste really change that much bottle to bottle? I'll try another one after the weekend and check.

Notes: Woah this is strong! ABV is well over on this one - closer to 9% i reckon.
body was thinner than my Duvel clone and alcohol higher - that will be all the sugar I added.
Once you get over the initial strength and alcohol hit, its quite pleasant - best drunk in small amounts and not one for quaffing.
Lovely satisfying finish. you know your drinking it! |

Notes: a Session beer... drink a lot
Well, that was the original plan. This beer failed to make it - that is what I get for shipping yeast from California to Georgia in the middle of summer. Smelled amazing and was shaping up to be everything I wanted. Although, at 4.8%, I don't think I would call it a Session Beer. The grain bill was designed to impart as much complexity and flavor into the beer as possible without having a huge alcohol content. |
