    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    I was thinking WLP060 or maybe WLP085.

    FYI, on the yeast. http://foiegrasandfunnelcakes.com/2014/11/07/artisan-interviews-10-questions-for-clark-lewey-toppling-goliath-brewery/ They use White Labs exclusively, they don't have a house strain nor do they want one, BUT they may mix yeast strains?

    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    To answer the question on the DH, the first hop addition is in for the full seven days. The second addition is added after the third day, and is in for a total of four days. As for the triangle tests I did, everybody could tell the difference. They all said mine smelled better, the flavor was...

    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    The last attempt from above, except,75lb crystal 10l instead of the 10l/20l combo, has been kegged for two weeks and I would say this is the closest I've come to cloned. I'm going to do a double blindfolded triangle test with my wife, a friend, and myself. All of us are fans, but only I will...

    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    I used Hop Union pellets again. Sent an email out to TGB asking if they'd give me their citra source, but got no reply. Are you getting a good mango flavor from the Yakima Valley citra? My PS clone should be carbed by the end of the week. I only have room in my dorm size kegerator for two kegs...

    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    I'd be down for that, just kegged my last attempt with London ESB fermented at high temps. Going in it tasted pretty good. To me, it tasted like the oniony batch of PS from a few months back, fiancé says it tastes right on. Either way not much aroma, not sure what happened there. Also have my...

    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    Doing a double brew for the 4th O'July Bash. Brewing Psuedo Sue and Black Mamba, my imperial black IPA, and using London ESB yeast for the PS. I will ferment a lil higher to take advantage of the yeasts fruity character. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    I used all pellet this time. There's been some confusion on the dry hop schedule. First off, the first addition is only in for a total of 7 days and second is in for the last 3 of the 7. Any longer and you're gonna start getting the cat piss aroma. The first batch is dumped into the secondary...

    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    I've had my attempt carbed up in the korny since Friday. I over shot and over carbed it a bit. This is a pretty low carbed beer and if you over carb just a bit, it accentuates the bitterness, masks the malt, and kills the citra aroma. I've been grabbing a pint ever since Sunday and today I felt...

    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    I plan on adding the second DH today and stealing another taste. Going to keg it on Sunday and maybe get it carbed up by mid week. I dare to ask, do they add a fruit juice or extract like mango to this stuff?! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    Just cracked the 1st bottle of the latest installment, saving the rest for side by side in a week or so.....there's no hope :( this stuff is simply incredible. I tasted some of mine while racking to the secondary, on Sunday, and thought it was gonna be very close. It tasted awesome but we'll...

    Toppling Goliath pseudoSue - Can you clone it?

    My first attempt tasted very close out of the secondary as well, but after carbing up and sitting a bit longer it lost the PS flavor quickly. As it aged (maybe a week) it lost the in your face citra flavor and crossed over to citra bitterness...if that makes any sense. That's why I ditched all...
