Hey everybody. I need a recipe. A while back i had a micro brew that tasted like red velvet cake. Since then I've been looking for a recipe to replicate it. Apperently Eagle Rock out of California make one that won some awards. They had a link for a home brew recipe but it doesn't work now...

Down to my last twelve bottles. Think I'll start another batch this weekend

I think you got an cider with extra fermentable sugars then. Idk with the lager yeast though. As long as you control your temps it should work out to a very dry cider

Lol a lil secret I've learned. I aged six of them in plastic bottles to a perfect sweet/tart flavor. And I take one to the gym with me after work.

No need to back sweeten. Mine was v the same way. After another two weeks in the bottle it calmed down to some really easy drinkability

My guess is you'd have to cold crash it, or get those pills that stall out the yeast. But I've back sweetened before with splenda with good results. Just My guess. I'm a bottle guy

Mine definitely didn't do that. Maybe one week. My mandarin orange hefe did. Smelled real funky too. Currently aging it

Awesome! We'll have to swap a six pack some time then.

Go green! Go white! My parents are alumni there

Hopbrad- I just made the same mistake with some Scottish ale. Added a pound and a half of malt to up the ABV but didn't change the hops and it was sickeningly sweet. Like the malt in the candy whoppers but no chocolate. Luckily it evened out after a month in the bottle. Well I was gonna...

Hey i'm pretty new to brewing but definitely already bitten by the bug. started out with a couple extract brews (scottish ale, dunkelweisen, and summer ale) but now in to some expirimention with AG like brandon_O's graf, another summer ale but with pureed mandarin orange, and an oktoberfest...

if your still thinking of this idea, did you check out Brandon_O's hopped graff? I just made it. basically its 1 part ale 4 parts cider and its pretty good. Guys in that thread compare it to a dry cider with a slightly bittering hops to even out the apple tartness. just a lil hops though. the...

alright so I'm still pretty new to brewing and this was my first brew using more grain then malt but I followed it exactly, let it ferment about three weeks and just bottled it today. Plus used hard pressed cider instead of apple juice. had a couple chilled samples first and heres my results: my...

Very recently I brewed a Scottish ale and to up the ABV I included an extra 1.5 # of malt extract without countering it with a lil extra hops. Well after a few weeks fermenting I bottled it then had one and it tasted like ****. Like that candy whoppers but no chocolate and overly malty...

Thanks bro. I got some time to drink down some regular sodas.

Good call. Thanks. Like I said in the OP I I'm just gonna do a few 1 liter bottles so I got plenty of time to drink down a soda or two. Maybe even pick up a few labels from office depot

Thank you everybody for all the help. I just joined this forum but have been reading it for about six months. I got Brandon_O's Graff almost at it's end point right now and since that's 80% cider I think my family would love it. Presentation may bee something to think about but good to know...

Ok so I got a few batches under my belt and have been bottling in glass pretty well. The holidays are coming up and I may wanna give some beer as a gift. Now, my family is pretty clumsy so can I re-use old soda bottles for bottling? The 1 liter bottles? I figure they already have a burst...
