Notes: BREWING PROCESS

Multi-step mash method:
The mashing and fermentation schedule of this beer is more complex than most beers. If you cannot follow the schedule exactly, relax, don’t worry, have a homebrew! I’ll try to offer some alternatives to simplify the process.
Mash-in to reach a beginning mash temperature of 55'C (protein rest) & hold for 20 minutes. Ramp or raise the temperature of the mash to 63.3'C (saccharification rest) and hold for 60 minutes. Finally, ramp or raise the temperature to 75.6'C (mash-out) and hold for 15 minutes. Lauter and sparge to collect enough pre-boil volume to allow for a 90 minute boil. Proceed with the 90 minute boil, adding the Simplicity candi syrup in the last 15 minutes of the boil.

A simpler mash method:
Mash at 63.3'C for 90 minutes. This will allow for a fermentable wort that will still make a great Belgian golden strong. However, the head retention and clarity will not be quite what it would be with a multi-rest mash. Lauter and sparge to collect enough pre-boil volume to allow for a 90 minute boil. Proceed with the 90 minute boil, adding the Simplicity candi syrup in the last 15 minutes of the boil.
Chill to 17.8'C, pitch yeast, and allow to raise to 27.8'C over the course of 5 days. If unable to raise this high, raise as high as possible.
Ferment at 27.8'C for 2 weeks. Then cold crash and lager at 0'C for 3 weeks before bottling in Belgian bottles or kegging.
As I said, this recipe calls for a lot of advanced techniques. If you are unable to follow them exactly, keep calm and brew on! You will still be able to make a fabulous beer by following standard brewing procedures.

Extract Version: Replace 5 kg of the the pilsner malt with 3 kg of light dry malt extract. Steep the remaining 0.5 kg of Belgian pilsner malt at 65.5-68.3'C for 30 minutes using a muslin grain bag. Begin with enough volume to allow for a 90 minute boil. Allow the rinsed grain bag to drain for 15 to 20 minutes. Turn off the flame and dissolve the extract thoroughly. Turn the flame back on, bring to a boil and proceed as normal with the 90 minute boil, following the hop schedule and adding the Simplicity candi syrup in the last 15 minutes of the boil. Chill to 17.8'C and follow fermentation schedule as closely as possible.

Notes: *The efficiency has been reduced to %70 due to usual decrease in efficiency that comes with brewing very high gravity beers. We can adjust this as needed.
*In regards to mash water volume, while many people go with 1.5 qts/lb of malt, we have always had success with a lower rate of 1 qt/lb. This may need to be adjusted.
*We have targeted a pre-boil volume of 16 bbls, but if evaporation is greater than this, let me know and we can adjust.
*Super moss/Whirlfloc have different usage rates. add at at rate that has been successful for Mare Island.
*Zinc usage rate has been increased due to increased gravity.
*Ferment at 66 degrees Fahrenheit. Ferment until final gravity doesn't change for at least 3 days in a row.
-Perform diacetyl test (notes to follow) daily until there is no diacetyl detected.
*After the beer is done fermenting, and passes a diacetyl test, drop the temperature of the tank to 35 degrees F. Allow to condition until the beer tastes ready.
*Hops can be substituted based on availability, though please consult with us before making substitution, as some varieties will not be appropriate to style.
*Hop quantity is based on Alpha acid indicated and a pre-boil volume of 16 bbls.

*Treat water as Mare Island does.

Notes: Friends ask for this one. I call it Christmas ale because it's high alcohol and is loaded with Chinook hops.

Chinook has a piney aroma. So, it smells like a christmas tree. High alcohol so you can put up with extended periods of extended family.

Notes: "Jeeringly Ransomed Havoc" is an anagram of "John and Rosalie McGreevy" and will be brewed to celebrate the marriage of the latter. Baltic Porter is commonly brewed in Poland and has it's roots in English and Irish stouts and Porters. Bia Hoi is a low-alchohol, rice-adjunct-heavy Vietnamese lager, usually drunk young. Canadians drink to forget that they're from Canada, so I forgot to put any distinctly Canadian ingredients in this beer.

Pitched at 18C. Risen to 21C at 20 hours with heavy blowoff activity. Fed with sugar. Upto 25C at 26 hours. Heavy blowoff activity. Ferment behavior sounds like Westmalle strain.

Saaz aroma oil at bottling.
