Notes

BRICKWARMER HOLIDAY RED (All Grain) Official NORTHERN BREWER Instructional Document

This strong-ish American amber ale is built for the cold: a substantial gravity for snowy weather, but a fast turnaround so you can get some holiday cheer from fermentor to pint ASAP. Malty but not too sweet, just enough bitterness to balance, a de nite but not overstated citrus hop pro le (bolstered by real citrus!), this is far from your normal holiday ale.Its saturated copper-red hue comes from a blend of malts: pale choco- late adds a warm, toasty dimension and suggestions of black tea to the g-and-toffee pro le of two authentic English caramel malts. The earthy and dark dried-fruit char- acter of the malt segues into bright oral citrus, thanks to the resinous lime-and- owers velvet punch of Styrian Goldings (Celeia) and a charge of sweet orange peel at the end of the boil!
