Notes: Made from a load of ingredients left over from previous brews. I basically threw them all together and crossed my fingers. Will update on results.
When first tried just after conditioning it was a very rough beer but now, after a month or so in cool storage it has mellowed out hugely and is very, very drinkable. Probably the best beer I have made so far! |

Notes: Add 1 tbsp flour to the boil for added starch for the bacteria to eat during the extended aging.
Primary fermentation in 6.5 gallon bucket, with both clean ale yeast and sour mix added at the same time, then rack (in about a month?) to 5 gallon BB carboy for extended aging. Add French, medium-toast oak cubes (boil in water 10 min first). Add dregs from other lambics to increase complexity.
In the 2018 Dixie Cup competition, the Fruited version of this Lambic (aged on blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries) won gold and the Straight Lambic won silver in the European Sour category.
[Note: in 2019 version, subbed 2.25 lb Dutch pale ale malt for that much of the 3.75 lb Belgian pale ale malt (LHBS was low). Also using ECY Bug County for the yeast and bugs.] |

| Notes: Needed to use my almost too old Tropical IPA yeast and had no time for a brew, so I did a stovetop 5 liter batch. Maybe hit 2 gallons in the fermenter, and when I transferred it to the serving keg I poured in a 25 oz can of Budweiser to up the volume. Still about 5 liters in the final serving keg. The dry hop with 2 oz was very intense but it is a juice bomp. Zappa is very tropical. I would certainly scale this up and brew again. This yeast is sure the one to use as well. |

Notes: Partial Mash: initial water temp was about 167 degs. 4-quart recommendation for 4-lb of grain was too little water. Maybe use 5-quarts next time? Also, intense manipulation of grain bags to try to spread the too-little liquid resulted in too-low T=145 degsF. So, I added 1-quart of hot water, thereby raising the temp to about 150. Also, next time, rinse grain bags in the brew kettle with clean water at 180-190 degs.
I forgot to update actual AA% of hops before brewing. Citra is default 11% here, but actual was 123%, so total est. IBUs are higher than I wanted- let's see how it tastes! |
