Strong Ale, Dubbel, Trippel, anything. How long did you leave it in the secondary? Any other stories? Thanks!:rockin:
I made a Belgian Golden Strong ale on Feb 1, 2009. I bottled it on April 19, and entered it into competition (MCAB qualifier) in late May. I won 3rd prize in the French/Belgian Ale category.
Recipe:
0.3 lb wheat malt
0.1 lb Munich malt
8 lb Extra light DME
1 lb light candi sugar
1.5 oz Super Styrian hops (60)
0.5 oz Saaz (15)
0.5 oz Saaz (1)
Wyeast Belgian Abbey II
OG: 1.082
FG: 1.012
ABV: 9.2%
Northern brewer has a kit that I think would fit your bill. I have it in Primary right at the moment so I cannot tell you how it tastes yet. Gravity is a high 1.084, but after cooling my wort down to pitching temp, 72°, it came out at an O.G. of 1.100.
That was off of 6.5 gallon start, and according to my bucket was at 5 gallons at the end so shouldn't of been any mixing problems. Either northern gives more than advertised, or my hydrometer is boffed.
Im looking for a great Quad extract kit. Something along the lines of my favorite beer = St Bernardus Abt 12
