Notes: This is a really balanced, slightly malty amber beer with a touch of roasted flavor.

The IBUs are so high on this, it is out of style for an Okto, but that doesn't matter to me.

*** NOTE: Not as good as using lager yeast. Won't be trying a 'mocktoberfest' again.

The flavor profile reminds me of a porter or stout. I think this yeast would do much better in a brown ale. The complex notes the hops are supposed to impart are being overridden too much by a harsh roasted maltiness. I don't think that is coming from the grain bill. Drinkable, powerful tasting beer, but not what I was hoping for.

In summary, screw Mocktoberfest, stick with Oktoberfest and larger it.

Notes: Don't boil kiwis. Steep around 150 - 160 F, 180 F is too high. 20 minutes, maybe a few extra minutes as wort cools. Going into a cask to ferment, so can't leave kiwis in wort. Strain out with hops. Add pectic enzyme after beer has cooled (with yeast).

OG 1.073
FG 1.016
ABV 7.6%

To change: Sub amber malt for pilsner (too dark). Less extract (too much alcohol).

Notes: Ferment primary for 7 days or until gravity is at desired FG. Rack beer into secondary directly on the frozen fruit. Sanitize fruit bags before adding and leave fruit whole (no crushing or blending) for sanitation.

Leave in secondary for 1-2 weeks then keg.

Notes: Basil is added 5 minutes until flameout directly to the boil

1/2 minerals added at mash the other half added during the boil after sparging.

Ferment at 64 then let naturally rise into mid to high 70's to finish.

Total water needed is 20 gallons. Mash strike temp is 9 gallons at 172. Sparge at 170 with the other 11 gallons Use Herms to keep mash range at 157 for 75 min.

Notes: Las enzimas van con las sales a la mitad del empaste.

Mantener el macerado constante entre 70 y 70,5ºC (si no lo podes lograr es opcional usar un poco de maltodextrina para que no se te caiga la densidad final)

No va acido en el agua de lavado

Sin Irish moss
Nutrientes y Zn en los 10 min finales de hervor

Una vez cumplido el tiempo de hervor, bajar el PH con ac citrico o lactico hasta 4.8-5

Notes: Brewed 6/21/15. Mashed at 148-151 for ~75mins. It looks dark orange and smells biscuity; I'm thinking 20L Munich would have been much better than the 30L but they were out. Pre-boil gravity 1.050. OG 1.052, 60% efficiency. Missed my 70% target. Just over 4 gallons of wort (kettle holds ~4.25). Ambient fermentation temperature held at ~75 throughout.

+12 days: Added 1oz lemon drop hops. Gravity 1.001

+23 days: Bottled with 10 tbsp table sugar; Going for ~3 volume. 38 beers total..

+36 days: fridged.

Won 1st place at 2015 Denver County Fair in Saison category. Two judges gave it 35/50 and 39/50. One judge thought it leaned towards residual sweetness and was not quite dry enough; the other though it finished dry. Both agreed that the carbonation was a bit much and the bottle did gush a little.

Next time I want to increase aciduated malt to 0.5lb, increase rye to 1 - 1.25lb, replace munich with a touch of midnight wheat for color, and reduce alcohol content slightly. Use less priming sugar.
