    American Amber Ale Zach & Jack's African Amber

    Hey Brewcat, Sorry I got sidetracked here's what I went with on mine: 11# Pale Malt 1 # Munich 1 # Crystal 80L 1/2 # Carapils Hops: 1 oz Centennial @ 60 1 oz Cascade @ 5 1 oz Cascade @ 0 1 oz Cascade Dry Hop Yeast: London Ale III (I had harvested from a previous NEIPA batch, so figured I'd...

    American Amber Ale Zach & Jack's African Amber

    Boom here is my attempt (Left) to the real deal (right). Pumped for the outcome, most people have said it tastes just as good if not better than the real deal. Thanks for the tips!

    Sabro hops

    That’s awesome! Small world! I’ve been on a NEIPA binge lately so I’m gonna try to steer away from that style this time but it’s seeming like NEIPA is a great style for this Hop.

    Stone Xocoveza Mocha Stout

    I finally finished mine off, but had some changes. I added about 40 oz of coldbrew and still didn’t get much coffee flavor, I also hung some whole beans in the keg for a few days. Regardless, what the coffee really did was offset the lactose sweetness and I couldn’t be happier. It ended up...

    Sabro hops

    Now that's pretty much what I was looking for. I just used some London Ale III and used the Brulosopher's Yeast Harvest method to keep some around for a future brew. I just may do something similar to this to try this hop out. I want to really get a sense of the flavor/aroma for sure. The...

    Sabro hops

    Happy to see this thread. I too just got 8 oz of Sabro along with Idaho-7, Amarillo, and Azacca as a package from Yakima Valley Hops. I've been torn between making a NEIPA or more of a standard IPA (possibly the same bill/schedule as Bell's Two Hearted, but with Sabro). For anyone who's...

    Stone Xocoveza Mocha Stout

    Went ahead and brewed my batch up on Saturday afternoon. Here are some details from brew day: Brew day changes: - I decided to go ahead and add an ounce of cocoa nibs at flameout for 10 minutes. I initially wasn't going to do this. Brew day tips: - I got a lot of doubters in other forums...

    Stone Xocoveza Mocha Stout

    This thread is amazing! I actually put together a grain bill for a coffee milk stout, but as I've read this thread and I know much my wife and I love Xocoveza I think I'll take it a step further with the additional adjuncts. My bill and additions are pretty different than what's on here so I'm...

    American Amber Ale Zach & Jack's African Amber

    I haven't had the real deal in a very long time since we moved out of state, but I figured if we're trying to get close it might be worth a shot to use the same hop profile. Looking to brew this up soon either way and I'll post my results in here.

    American Amber Ale Zach & Jack's African Amber

    Keeping this thread alive. I happened to notice on Mac & Jack's website, which really didn't seem to have too much on it back in the day but it looks like they've re-vamped. For this brew they list Cascade and Nugget hops, anyone tried using Nugget as the bittering over Centennial...

    Belgian Dark Strong Ale Westvleteren 12 Clone - Multiple Award Winner

    How has carbonation worked out for those that have made this? I've never pitched more yeast at bottling for beers, but I've also never fermented or let a bottle sit as long as this beer would. Is it necessary? Or do you just add the usual priming sugar at bottling and theres still enough...

    Belgian Dark Strong Ale Westvleteren 12 Clone - Multiple Award Winner

    Just happened to notice the Northy 12 AG kit at Northern Brewer is the same as this recipe if you’re having issues finding what you need locally.

    Awesome thank you so much for the details. May first try I'll go without to speed up and simplify the brewday a bit.

    Belgian Dark Strong Ale Westvleteren 12 Clone - Multiple Award Winner

    Wow this thread is incredible as I'm looking to learn all I can before trying to brew a solid belgian quad. I was curious in regards the original recipe on one point and was hoping for some clarification: What is the point of the boil down of a gallon of the wort to a thick syrup then...
