Notes
Times are tough in Pottersville, with the rent that old man Potter charges for his slums! Given that he owns the mill too, his prices are out of control...so what's a brewer to do?
This twist on a pale ale uses light molasses and dark molasses instead of grains. It is gluten free, if made with gluten free yeasts like Danstar.
Rather than corn syrup, light molasses or Lyle's Golden syrup can be used. The molasses in the recipe should be dark molasses, to provide color and character, and some complexity.
Boil 1 gallon of water, and add hops according to schedule.
Add 2oz molasses at flameout.
Pour the 1.25lb corn syrup (or light molasses/golden syrup, whatever you decided to use) into a new pot.
Strain hot hops/molasses water into new pot, on top of corn syrup (or light molasses/golden syrup).
Cool to 70-80 degrees.
Rack into primary until the wort just reaches the shoulder of the jug. Just be sure you do not surpass the ONE GALLON writing on the jug. I recommend a blow off tube for the first 3-4 days of fermentation, as well.
Pitch yeast and give it 2 weeks, or until fermentation stops and hydrometer readings are consistent.
Bottle with 0.9-1.0 oz of dextrose.
Here's to Mr. Potter, the richest and meanest man in the county!
It's a wonderful life!
