Notes: An IPA with primarily Galaxy hops (citrus, peach, passion fruit), backed up by some El Dorado (tropical fruit, pear, watermelon, citrus). Simple light LME base, with 4% vienna malt steeped to add a touch more malt flavour to offset the hops. No crystal or caramel malt, to allow the hops to shine through. Almost all hopes added 10 minutes, whirplool or dry hopped.

Notes: Brewed on New Years' Day 2022.
A little bit thinner mouth feel, not as creamy as I was going for.

I will be brewing this again on New Years' Day 2023. I have changed a few things... added 1 pound of flaked oats and boosted the coffee malt from .75 lbs to 1 lb. also switched the whisky from Glenleit to Jaimasons cask mates(stout) and added 2 vanilla beans. The coffee and vanilla will soak in the whisky for 2 weeks and it will all go into the secondary.

Update 2023: Pending
This beer took 3rd place in BOS in the Chico Homebrew competition. I feel like I can still do better. I think it was still a little lite on the body, could have been sweeter, and had more vanilla. I am going to up the lactose and the vanilla beans.

Update 2024: Pending

Notes: I created a culture of bugs from the dregs of bottles of Jolly Pumpkin Calabaza Blanca, Jolly Pumpkin La Roja, and Lindemans Framboise Lambic prior to racking by a solution of 2 cups water to one half cup DME. The scent was acidic with a small pellicle growing atop.

The day prior, I boiled peaches, then pureed them using my ninja blender. I then placed them in the refrigerator in sanitized jars.

Rack onto peaches and toasted french oak chips as you approach FG. Add your yeast culture. Swirl carboy contents and let sit for 6 months.

**UPDATE - 8/ 15 /15 Tasted Approximately 2 months after adding peaches. The peach flavor is null, however, the sour is present. Next time I will use apricot as I hear it is better used for that stone fruit flavor. At this point in time, the beer is very well balanced and tasty with mild sourness. I hope the sour will grow. Beer is a nice orangey / brown color.

11/23/15 - Bottled. FG of 1.004. Damn, this is amazing. I believe this beer is about 7%abv

Notes: Immerse the oak cubes in a bourbon of your choice and set aside while the beer is in primary. When primary is finished, put the cubes in your secondary vessel and rack on top. Let sit for at least a month, and then sample every few weeks until the oak flavor is to your liking. Now prepare the vanilla beans.

Cut the vanilla beans into one-inch long pieces and cut in half lengthwise. Scrape out the gunk inside and discard. Soak the beans in bourbon for a day or so to sanitize. Add to the secondary and let sit for two weeks, then bottle or keg.

This beer really benefits from long-term bottle-conditioning. Immediate tastings were positive, but six-month old bottles were outstanding. Time really allows the flavors to meld with the vanilla.

Notes: All grains and pumpkin go in the mash. If the pumpkin is in the boil you will most likely lose a gallon of water, and have a tough time straining the pumpkin out.

If you really want to put the pumpkin into the boil then you should use a grain bag or filter the wort before racking to your primary.
