Been testing out how to increase hop character using hot side hops. after reading scott janish and the talk around what hot side can do to increase the quality of ipa's, i found that idaho 7 was hisd favourite (he obviously has a list of hops that work really well). Here in NZ Iadho 7 is a...

Sorry, its been awhile since I've been here. Worked surprisingly well, Only use on hot side as below. 5min 1oz sorachi ace whirlpool @ 80Deg C - 1 oz sabro, 4 oz citra bio dryhop - 1 oz each, nelson citra post ferment dryhop - 3 oz each nelson and citra I'm working on a version two...

Nectaron FTW. Wai-iti I haven't used in any hoppy beers, but I say give it a crack, other wise swap it out for some Diesely Riwaka

i just did sorachi ace, sabro, nelson and citra. should be interesting.

Yes budweiserwill do hat, but guys like stone are smaller, and will adjust batch by batch generally.

It's definitely an interesting one. we all know that independent breweries will tweak and make minor changes to their recipes over time and batch by batch, sometimes because of harvest quality, AA's etc. I guess the question is, are Stone too big to play with their recipes batch by batch? I...

so its 1.5% roast barley I'm unsure what the boil down will add to the beer, but assumed 10 points additional (if no then it'll give me an idea for next time). Sadly as well WY1469 isn't available in NZ (I'm gutted, cos this is such an awesome yeast). So I went with WLP023 burton. So I guess...

thats quite the run down - really appreciate the time youtook to write and post on this. It definitely an interesting topic, and may taste like something compeltely different to what the style hybrds im looking at intend, but for all intensive purposes i feel as though its true hybrid between an...

should be plenty of yeast left over to do more than just this beer, so a roasty stout sounds like a good plan. ive used this yeast on a neipa before, and it comes out really really well.

Basically, I want to make a Wee Heavy. But, I will have a perfect yeast cake of WY1469 West Yorkshire, from a Best bitter, that I'd love to use (alternatively I can use this yeast for an NEIPA which works really well). The recipe is super simple. 93% Maris Otter 5% Munich or Vienna (not sure...

Living in NZ. Motueka is a hop thats is readily and easily available. Funnily enough I've never experimented with it anywehre near enough. But there are numerous breweries here, which use it as a hop in their hazy IPA's. I'm not sure if its for backup flavour or as the main flavour compound, but...

I use it in moderation on this type of beer, is a back up (i.e. 1/4oz) rather than a standing component. my whirlpool and dryhop is: 50g mandarina 30g motueka 10g mosaic

I quite like Lemondrop as a hop

motueka, mandarina & mosaic has worked for me. or pair with any other nz hop basically. its hugely versatile.

Tell you what, I'm just starting to really experiment with hop combo's in this style. My go to has always been Nelson galaxy, mosaic and citra (simcoe in the whirlpool if i want something different). But there are a couple of breweries here in NZ that are doing absolutely banging Hazies. Some...

I kegged this yesterday. an exact replica, based on the information SN provided. this was a beer I drank alot of while after longwalks in the Yosemite's when I was in the Us for 5-6weeks. We'll see what it comes out like, but it looks like a solid enough recipe. Happy to post up my results.

given the water here is really plain, not alot of treatment is actually required. 3:1 is what I do on most beers like this. we have no chlorine, and no other treatments, so filtering isn't required. i add 1/2 tsp of lactic acid to the aprge water normally.

You'll all be pleased to know this picked up a bronze at the NHC here in NZ. Comments to the contrary of good beer were some minor oxidation and needs fresher hops. It's a winner. slightly modified from the final recipe from redskinnfan, but much the same overall.

Then you’ll be glad to know I’ve just mashed in my first attempt. Using inspiration from redskinnfan Metric measurements 6kg 2row 600g Caraaroma 150g carapils 25g Chinook 60/30 30g chinook 10 60g chinook 0 Using BRY97 for yeast as it’s my easy as house yeast.

Has anyone brewed this beer with this yeast? https://www.lallemandbrewing.com/en/global/product-details/lalbrew-new-england/ Alternatively, has anyone brewed this with a good non US-05 or S-04 Dry yeast? Keen to hear peoples thoughts.
