One of the most epic thread resurrections I've seen!

My Summer Ale (Partial mash). I used to brew it all grain until I tried it partial mash for the extract brewers that come in the store. I will never brew it all grain again, this is just as good as the original recipe. Ferment with Wyeast 1007 (preferred) or US-05

I agree with Jedi, well done! Also, good on you for using the search function first

I did all Sorachi Saison. It was pretty good.

jfrank85 · 10-06-2012, 04:40 PM

I used Zythos and Sorachi in a rye wheat IPA and it was great. Sorachi is a great bittering hop, nice and clean imo.

**Rob_B** · 10-06-2012, 05:25 PM

I've been thinking about picking some Sorachi up to dry hop a gallon of Berliner Weiss. I think the lemony aroma would be a great compliment.

**jcam91** · 11-26-2012, 08:05 PM

Bump. Has anyone dry hopped with sorachi? Does it give more lemon flavor

**thughes** · 11-26-2012, 08:14 PM

I did an all Sorachi Saison, dry hopped with more Sorachi. It was a major lemon/dill bomb.....way too much! Mellowed after a couple of months and didn't finish up too bad. It's a nice hop just be careful how/where you use it.

**jcam91** · 11-26-2012, 10:25 PM

I'm brewing a saison as well. So it looks like I'm better with sorachi as bitter and maybe dry hop my Saaz or Willamette. Want to incorporate ek goldings but probably too many hops to stay in style. Thanks!
