Looking for Founders Dirty Bastard Clone
 

Does anyone have a recipe that is very similiar to Dirty Bastard? I enjoy the taste of this brew but in my area it is not always available and it is expensive. Doesn't have to have the high ABV.

13 lbs. Pale Malt
1 lb. Special B
.5 lb. Carapils
.5 lb. Caramunich
.5 lb. Caravienne
.25 lb. Black Patent

1 oz. Golding @60
.5 oz. Perle @40
.5 oz. Golding @20

US-05 for yeast.


- It's an AG version but I'll see if I can find a Extract and post. I think I will try this one at some point.......

just picked up the ingredients for the extract today, should be brewing it up tomorrow or the next day. ill post back to let ya know how it turns out :mug:

If this is a "wee heavy" shouldn't it be fermented with a Scottish ale yeast? I'm not being snooty just questioning the yeast choice.

should come in around 7.6 but it is still in the alcohol tolerance of the yeast.
i think i'm going to try it on a 1056 american ale cake.

also on the wyeast site, the yeasts have similar characteristics. one just is more tolerant.

Has anyone tried brewing this with the extract recipe?
