Notes: For this beer, we're attempting to put together a spicy, smoky and robust Winter Warmer style ale that doesn't particularly conform to traditional style norms. Several varieties of wheat malt will hopefully contribute a neutral smoothness to the feel, and, at a hair over 50% of the grist being smoked malt (split 40/60 between cherrywood and beechwood), we're hoping there will be adequate campfire flavor without going overboard. We chose Chinook as an exclusive hop for this beer as it is described as having a distinct smoky aroma that is imparted towards the end of the boil, and it seemed neutral enough as a 60 minute addition instead of the generic Magnum that could be used for this non-hoppy beer.
We decided to steep some spices at five minutes to the end of the boil. The modest amounts of nutmeg, cinnamon sticks and crushed cardamom pods should yield a slight bit of pungent and appreciable spice to the base smoky yet balanced medium-dark beer.
Cheers!
11/9/14: Just bottled this one. Racked it to secondary on 10/26 and have been letting it sit until just now. Took another sample and final gravity reading... finished pretty much perfectly at 1.014-15; great! Flavor is very, very smoky and campfire-y with a lot of subtle spice notes and a bit of sweetness. Excited for it to carbonate.
12/11/14: Alright, been long enough without an update for this one. Pat and I have had it multiple times since bottling and we are very happy with it. Since I don't have a bottle on hand to write about now, I'll copy/paste what I wrote on Facebook when I first had a bottle three or so weeks back: "Smoked Winter Warmer is a go! Notes of bittersweet chocolate, chicory, cinnamon/nutmeg and, of course, a ton of campfire smokiness. A big yet smooth feel enhances the seasonal warming feeling of this one. Very proud of how this came out."
This is probably our first beer that we have planned through 100%, knew what we wanted (rather than just having a rough/weird sketch of an idea) and had it come out basically exactly like what we both assumed it'd be. As I said, I'm proud of it and I'm sure Pat is too. |
