Dry Hop 2oz Cascade

Very excellent fragrance, mouth feel similar to true English cask beer, nice bittering and clean color, if you like smooth very slight sweet and bitter hopped beer this is ideal, one of my better masterpieces

Notes: Modern Times - Fortunate Islands clone

https://www.brewersfriend.com/mash-chemistry-and-brewing-water-calculator/?id=Z4XL4Z0

Ferment 64F for four to five days, bump to 68F till fermentation completes.
-----------------------
Notes for future brews:
(lower the amount of GP) Try with 3 lb Golden promise and 3 lb pale malt
Raise the Mash temp 152-154
Try WLP095 or WLP001
----------------
Was able to compare to a can of Fortunate Islands. The actual fortunate islands from the can was definitely more bitter.

Notes: use Brewer's Edge. Test Batch
heat 3.5 gallons on stove to 180 - transfer to Igloo cooler before mash
boil strike
3 gal to 162 add grain and stir for no dough balls
set temp to 152 1 hour
Stir grain every 15 min
drain mash by lifting ss bucket in brewer's edge
add cold water til sparge is 170 f to 5 gallon cooler
once 1 gallon collected, collect 1qt or 2 and pour slowly on grain bed.
Sparse by slowly dumping 1qt back on mash
boil 1 hour add hop as scheduled using a hop bag
measured 1.052 @60f 78% eff
add dry hops to fermenter and let cool overnight to ~70f
when cooled to 70F pitch yeast rack after 3 days
Rack to 5 gallon carboy after fermenting slow for 7 to 10 days
when clear and and no fermentation.
transfer bottling bucket. dissolve 5 oz of corn sugar into 16 oz of water. mix in and bottle

feel free to use 1# crystal 10 if you cant get 1 # Munich for 9 # max grain. adjust as need to hit efficiency

Updated had to add 1/4 gallon at rack so i failed to collect enough at sparge. efficiency suffered to 73% when i account for the 1/4 gallon added to secondary
1.012 at bottle 70f

Notes: A crisp, sparkling and refreshing beer that will satisfy your most hard-earned thirst. Light in color and body, the flavor is punctuated with an assertive clean finish. An extremely drinkable beer and a true American microbrewery favorite!
-Mr.Beer

First pour of the West Coast Pale Ale came out with less carbonation than I hoped due to serving temperature. For a while I thought I was a victim of "Chill Haze" but after referance found out that this is it's proper Hue. Taste wasn't too shabby, I also expected way less. Compared to a Less Citric Blue Moon with a much dryer finish. Not bad for my first Home Brew.

Notes: Yuengling test recipe. Taken from two other Yuengling Lager clones and combined.
Edit - 3/17/20 - Brewed 2/22/20 as a scaled down batch ( supposed to be 1.1gal, excessive boil off resulted in 3 quarts into fermentor. Pre boil gravity 8 points low, but the high boil off resulted in hitting OG right on.) Initial tasting (before bottling) showed some kind of fruity esters? I dunno. We'll see what some bottle conditioning time does.
S-23 is SUPPOSED to give off fruity esters I found out, LOL. Perhaps I should have gone with S-189 yeast. Or better yet, the W-34/70 which is supposed to be virtually neutral. Bottled on 3/12/20. I also might try flip flopping the hops and use Cluster for the 60 minute addition.
Edit - July 6, 2020 - After I bottled this recipe, I brewed it again on 3/20/20 and flip flopped the hops. Kept everything else the same except I used some "mystery malt" that was given to me instead of the pilsner base malt. The guy said it was "just "2-row" " but didn't have the heart to tell him many grains are 2 row and that it could be anything LOL. In any case, the second batch I had a lot more volume in the mash and sparge (rinse) and ended up with about a gallon into bottles. 3 weeks carb and then into the fridge where they still are. I am planning to have two friends over to do a side by side with Yuengling Lager to see what's what.
Edit - Sept. 19, 2020, Taste tested these two side by side with Yuengling lager also and other tasters said the "mystery malt" one was preferred, I felt that that one was too "fruity" or something. I just don't care for that mystery malt I think. While tasting we mixed the two in the glass and it didn't taste too bad. So I brewed a third 1.1 gal test batch with half pilsner and half mystery malt in early August. It is still in the fermentation chamber. The first version (this recipe) was more malty IMO and tasted better. 9/19/2020 I have a starter of Fermentis W-34/70 German lager yeast going for tomorrow's brew of a proper 5.5 gallon batch of this. Hopefully this will become one of my staples.
Edit - 1/2/21 - Finally tapped the keg several weeks ago. Have been nursing this as it is so good. I don't want it to go empty. Purchased supplies to make another batch, the only change made was the main malt from Weyermann to Dingemans. I'll note any changes in flavor. Also, this tastes similar to Yuengling, but it is definitely its own lager. I'll leave the name on here "Yuengling Style Lager", but at home I'm calling it "My Pennsylvania Lager" since I changed the recipe enough and it's no longer really a clone, even though it's quite similar.
