Notes
Some mods that I made based on my mashing/sparge (and you guys have the water cooler mash tun that I was using back then). I bumped the base malt up to 9 lbs because I was not getting 78% eff on my mash and even his numbers for 78% didn't mesh with my brewing software. Go with about 9 lbs pale malt to get you in the OG range of 1.056. I fermented with White Labs 830 German Lager as Grady suggested at ale temps in the 68-72 dF range, Final beer was meh, ok I guess compared to the actual 1554.....mine was far too fruity & diacetyl. Notes that I took based on the finished beer kept the grain bill and hops the same, but changed the yeast to WLP029 German Ale/Kolsch with warm fermentation temp (68-74 dF). I don't stock that yeast, but can order it on a Monday and have it in store by Friday. You could probably have similar result with a dry yeast SD-23 if you can ferment it around 68-72 dF, I completely agree with Grady on fermenting with a lager yeast at ale fermentation temps. They produce a huge amount of diacetyl and off flavor by-products at those warm temps, but are masked/offset by the extreme peppery spice profile from the addition of Paradise Seeds. After sampling my version of this beer with Mike Dixon (national bjcp judge), I'm convinced that it could be made with WYeast 3463 Belgian Forbidden Fruit strain and fermented in the 70ish dF range as well.
What I get from the brewery (Grady Hull, asst brwmstr):
60% Pale malt, then carapils, munich, black and chocolate.
Mash at around 154° for 45m.
21 IBU's of Target for 35m, lager yeast fermented around 65ish.
He also commented on my recipe assumptions, which gave a few more hints.
I'm now thinking something like:
