Notes: Based on a dopple bock with modified recipe to target a lower ABV (can drink more) whilst retaining the flavour. The malt profile is supported by the use of German Bock Lager Yeast (WLP833). FG = 1.009, ABV = 6.3%

Won best in class at Gisborne (NZ) 2020 home brew competition - Lager.

Notes: This recipe makes a dry, bitter, and hoppy saison, and can also serve as a solid template for further variations. See suggestions below.

Mash Schedule for BIAB

Because of the relatively large proportion of spelt in this recipe, I typically do a cereal mash. The process is quite straight-forward for Brew in a Bag, but may require some modification for other mashing regimes.

1) Crush spelt separately to consistency of grits. Bring to a boil in a large saucepan with a few litres of water (subtract this from the volume of your main batch, or take it directly from the liquor in the main kettle). Keep at a boil, stirring to prevent scorching, until it forms a thick porridge: usually 15-20 minutes. This stage can be done prior to brew day, with the cooled spelt porridge stored in the fridge till required.

2) Heat main mash liquor and dough in with grist and spelt porridge, aiming for an initial temperature of 131F. You may need to break up the spelt porridge with your hands if you stored it before use. Keep at this temperature for around 15-20 minutes. [Optional step: you can also include an earlier rest at around 113F. This may aid with lautering and possibly increase phenolics from any brettanomyces strains.]

3) Raise mash to around 145F. Keep at this temperature for 40-50 minutes.

4) Raise mash to around 154F. Keep at this temperature for 20 minutes.

5) Raise to 168F. Mash out and lauter. Top-up with water to reach your desired pre-boil volume. Proceed with boil.

Fermentation:

Cool beer to around 65F. Oxygenate, pitch yeast, and allow to freerise. (In the summer, I would keep it in my fermentation chamber set at 70F for 24-26 hours.)

Variations:

This recipe provides a good template for variation. The spelt gives the beer a full mouth-feel that stands up well to both hops and acidity.

As it stands, the recipe makes a fairly bitter, hoppy beer. I find it ages gracefully if you add a small pitch of brettanomyces (e.g. bottle dregs) to secondary or at bottling: as the hops fade, the brettanomyces character will gradually become more prominent.

I have varied the grist for this recipe in a number of ways, all with good results. Some suggestions: - replace some of the pilsner with 5-15% Vienna or Munich. - replace some of the pilsner with 15-30% of another base malt, e.g. pale ale malt, Golden Promise, 6-row, etc. - add an adjunct in the kettle or post-boil. I have added both honey and Candi Syrup to this recipe. I thought the former worked particularly well.

Try adding an element of acidity to the beer; depending on your palate, you may want to dial back the bitterness slightly if you do this (I do not). - I often blend in 10-25% pale sour with this beer. The fullness from the spelt provides a nice balance to the acidity. Depending on your final gravity, you can do this in secondary or at bottling. - Add flavour at bottling, e.g. I have made a tea from hibiscus leaves and added it at bottling, which provided a nice tartness along with brilliant colour.

Notes: Batch #12A-5A
American Amber(Red)Ale with a sharp bite of hops and a lemon kick in the tail
American 2-row pale ale malt, American Crystal 60L, Victory malt rounds out the grain bill. Mash temperatures in the range of 152°F to 154°F creating a wort with a nice balance of fermentable and non-fermentable sugars.
Magnum hops adds a balanced bitterness, homegrown whole leaf Cascade hops adds a distinctive grapefruit flavor and Lemon Drop hops during flameout adds a special aroma.
Yeast: White Labs California Ale WLP001 PurePitch Lot #1025150 Manuf. April 12, 2016. QC cell count 2.82e9/ml slurry.
Saint Philip the Serpent Killer is the 5th of 12 brews in the Twelve Apostles beer line. Each of these 12 brews are American Amber Ales. Experimentation with water profile, temperature variations including mash temp., grain bill, ambient temp., hops varieties and yeast strains provide endless opportunity to learn about and improve this beer over the year.
Homegrown Cascade hops Alpha Acid has been age adjusted in this recipe since details of storage and pick date are a known variable.
Bitterness to starting gravity ratio (IBU [32.3] divided by OG [52]) = [.62]. (0.5 to 0.7 for a balanced amber).
Actual Final Gravity (w/h calibrated precision hydrometer) = 1.008.
Actual ABV = 5.64%.
All test equipment calibrated prior to use.

Notes: Mash at 150F for 60 min. Add First Wort Hops when entire boil volume approaches 170F. 90 minute boil. 0 Minute hopstand hops get added at flameout and stand for 45 minutes. 0 min Aroma hops get added at 160F during chilling. Pitch and ferment 60-62F. Primary for a total of 14 days so that everything clears up nicely, cold crash for 2 days at or below 40F, then rack to secondary and bring back to ferm temps. Add first dry hop, 2 days later add second dry hop and filter and bottle at the end of day 4. Bottle and condition for 21 days at 62F.
