Notes: Midnight Sun Brewing Company: Arctic Devil Barley Wine clone

(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.121 FG =1.033
IBU = 25 SRM = 21 ABV = 13.2%

This is an English-style barleywine brewed once each year and then aged in oak barrels several months before being released each fall.

Ingredients
21.5 lbs. (10 kg) Maris Otter pale ale malt
1 lb. (0.45 kg) Special B malt (138 °L)
6.1 oz. (0.17 kg) Caramunich II malt
15 oz. (0.43 kg) brown sugar
5 AAU Fuggle hops (60 min.) (1 oz./28 g at 5% alpha acids)
3.75 AAU Challenger hops (30 min.) (0.5 oz./14 g at 7.5% alpha acids)
0.9 oz. (26 g) Fuggle hops (0 min.)
0.15 oz. (4.3 g) Challenger hops (0 min.)
8 oz. (227 g) Cascade hops (dry hop)
1.5 oz. (43 g) medium toast American oak chips
Wyeast 1728 (Scottish Ale) or White Labs WLP028 (Edinburgh Scottish Ale) yeast
¾ cup (150 g) dextrose (if priming)

Step by Step
Mash at 148 °F (64 °C) for 60 minutes. Collect enough wort for a 3.5-hour boil adding hops in the final hour of the boil per the ingredients list. At the end of the boil, give the wort a long stir and let settle for 15 minutes. Cool, aerate heavily and transfer to the fermenter. Ferment at 68 °F(20 °C) until finished, then transfer the beer into a secondary vessel with the sanitized oak chips. You can sanitize the oak chips by boiling them in 1 cup water for 15 minutes or you can try soaking these in wine or a spirit of your choice. Midnight Sun will barrel age Arctic Devil for 10–12 months in American oak barrels of various origins. We recommend 1-2 months on the oak chips, tasting regularly until the desired level of oak flavor is achieved. Dry hop the beer for ten days, then bottle or keg. Carbonate to 2.4 volumes CO2.

Extract with grains option:
Substitute the Maris Otter pale malt in the all-grain recipe with 15 lbs. (6.8 kg) Maris Otter liquid malt extract. Place the crushed grains in a grain bag and steep in 5 gallons (19 L) water as it heats up to 170 °F (77 °C). Remove the grain bag and allow to drain back into the kettle. Bring to boil and boil for 60 minutes, adding the hops according to the ingredients list. Follow the remaining portion of the all-grain recipe.

Notes: Can use altbier yeast (WLP 036) also, but Kölsch (Wyeast 2565 or WLP029) is more attenuative (or also a Belgian Abbey strain, or WLP 810 SF Lager). Could also add some oak cubes for a wood-aged version. Lager for 1-2 months.

No subcategory for this historical style, so I just entered under Düsseldorf Altbier, since this is a similar (but bigger and more complex - smoke and maybe slight sour) beer from Düsseldorf.

Vital Statistics:
OG: 1.074–1.110
FG: 1.015 – 1.030
IBUs: 30 - 40
SRM: 11 - 14
ABV: 9 - 10%

Notes: Brew Day August 6.
Lalvin 71B two packs
1.25 gallon local orange blossom honey
Well water
Pitch at 60F
Aerate with O2 for 20 seconds. Added 1/2 nutrient in one cup water
staggered nutrient every other day to complete additions.
fermenting at 62F
August 21- airlock still showing activity ~ 3 bubbles per minute

Sept 20 SG = 1.022. No airlock activity. Taste is still very sweet. strong alcohol notes. Needs more time. After opening bucket, flooded it with CO2 prior to reclosure

Oct 11. SG = 1.020 transfered ~ 2 g to cabroy containing 3 # raspberry puree

remainder transfered to secondary. Still too sweet.

1/7/17 The raspberry batch SG dropped to 1.010 but still tasted too sweet (other wise good!)

The main batch was about 1.018 and too sweet. (otherwise good) Made a 100 mL slurry of champagne yeast and added ca65 mL to the big batch and 35 mL to the raspberry batch.

2/24/17 tested the raspberry mead: SG = 1.004 Tastes good! Bottle time! CAP label M2

4/1/17 The main batch is stuck at 1.018. Taste is good. Bottled. 13.7% ABV cap label is M1

Notes: Actual SRM appears to be about 25-26, Compare with Kulshun Red Cap both in color and taste. Mine is less IBU than the Kulshan.

Actual Measurements:
BG : 1.086
OG: 1.052
FG: 1.011

Primary fermentation was quick, 3-4 days in 5 gallon plastic carboy. Transferred to secondary 5 gallon plastic carboy on day 8. Cleared by day 16. Used a 5 gallon carboy as bottling bucket, to which bottling sugar/water had been previously added.

Loss from transfer amounted to 10 pints. so actual bottling was 30 pint bottles.

Allowed 15 days conditioning at 66F. Very drinkable, nice head that dissipates in about a minute. I suggest using more hops to increase the IBU as it is very light.
