What mostly intrigues me is how to get such a strong aroma and carbonation. I've found some different red rye PA recipes, but I really want to know how this was done... our Am I making it to complicated and this is yet just another different recipe?

Carbonation is just adding appropriate/more sugar at bottling for bottle conditioning. The aroma is probably the combination of the Belgian carmel malt and a big Amarillo dry hop.

You're right, it's just another recipe

Brewed this one up last night and cant wait to try it. They hydro sample was fantastic. I didnt stray from the recipe at all and fly sparged for the first time. My eff. went through the roof ( due to teh fly sparge, I guess) and ended with an OG of 1056. Very excited for this one.

Brewed this up today. If the finished product taste as good as the hydro sample, this is gonna be a great beer. Thanks for sharing.

just wanted to chime in on this recipe. i pretty much brewed this recipe a while back, i upped the base malt and rye by .25 lbs to get a slightly lighter, dryer beer. i kept everything else the same, using Columbus hops @ 14% aa in the same amounts. i used Wy1272, after hearing that strain works great in rye beer.... it does! i have to say this recipe was a big hit, we floated the keg in ~2 weeks, which is pretty fast in our house. even my neighbors, who're die hard Keith Stone fans, loved it! i'll definitely be brewing this again soon! thanks for the recipe!

Just kegged up my second batch of this beer but I gotta wait till I kick my oatmeal stout before it gets pressure... was thinking of carbing this to about 2.5 volumes, does that sound good for this style?

I am getting ready to bottle this bacth. Tasty brew calculates 4oz of priming sugar. Just curious what amounts others primed with.

for the posters asking about IBU's in this recipe. I did 4 half ounce additions at 50-20-10-1 with columbus hops 11.1%AA to get 36 IBUs
