I've been meaning to brew a Mosaic cream ale while the weather is still nice, but the name got me on this one. Bumped this recipe to my next brew day, I've used vienna as a base in the past and have been very pleased. Will report back in a few weeks :mug:
I came up with this beer to accomplish a few things: I wanted something to have on tap that was a real crowd pleaser, and I needed it to be cheap and easy to replicate. I also don't have the means or patience to do a 'true' lager. Without sounding like bragging, it has been wildly successful at...
Thanks for touching base Troels. The golden rum should add a nice touch, I may try that next time I brew. I'm having a glass right now so here's a quick pic
Hope it turns out well!
This recipe started out as an attempt to clear out some of the grains I had on hand to make room for new bags of grain. In fact, the first incarnation was brewed entirely from leftover ingredients, but as things in the brewing world tend to go, I got a bit carried away hence the name...
Sorry Tech,
I haven't brewed in a while so I haven't been on the forum. It's probably of no use to you now, but the least I could do is give you the courtesy of responding.
I've brewed this beer 4 or 5 times and usually hit somewhere between 1.056 and 1.058. However, I don't think a few extra...
Just a simple dry Irish stout recipe with heaps of coffee added. The absence of caramel malts really helps the coffee shine and the flaked barley lends just enough creaminess to give it a bit of body.
This beer is really all about the coffee so don't skimp. No Folger's, and nothing too dark...
Hate to keep reviving an old thread but I just bottled this up a week and a half ago, and I must say this will probably become a Spring staple at my house every year. Kept the grain bill pretty much the same with some minor adjustments to the hop schedule to suit my tastes. (subbed ahtanum for...
I'm thinking I'll just bite the bullet and find out for myself. Worst case scenario I bought a $100 bar ornament. Will definitely report back if it worked or not in a month or two
I'm looking into investing in a 10L oak barrel like the one here: http://www.amazon.com/American-Barrel-Black-10-Liter/dp/B009K5EQ0Q/ref=pd_sim_hg_12?ie=UTF8&refRID=1ZKRY5HF6K7D9WS0CYGV
I figured this would be an inexpensive and cool alternative to a kegerator to serve beer out of at our...
Brewed this as my first all grain. I wound up having about a gallon of wort left over so I brewed 2 separate batches. For the initial batch I used kolsch, then I threw some British ale WLP005 in a 5 liter jug with whatever was left over. Both yeast were washed from previous batches. Just bottled...
