[Franzi]

Shame on you for looking here!!!

[BeerAg]

I have a recipe for a great bud light clone somewhere.

Maybe I left it in my briefcase with my flux capacitor plans and Wonka fizzy lifting drink recipe.

 

[Yuri_Rage]

Fizzy yellow beer is for wussies.

 

[BigKahuna]

Man....I had a whole big slam for BMC drinkers all prepped up....I was going to go on about why you'd waste your time making something you can get for a few bucks at 7-11
Shame on you for getting me all rilled up.

18 posts and jabbing sticks at the bears????

What goes around.....

 

[jezter6]

IB4TL!!

Usually the trolls give up or get banned in the first 10 - this one has done well to wait until 18 before giving us this one - and in the HBT troll history, this one ranks fairly low.

Where's Yooper with the Banhammer?

 

[c.n.budz]

Yeah.... Let's see you actually brew a Bud light clone, it's a lot tougher than you think...

 

[BigKahuna]

Son of a Crap!
I even wasted my 600 here.

I gotta go home and shower in star san! (Not a bad idea actually)

 

[the_bird]

I'm waiting... I'm guessing post #11....

... for the first person to say "I've got a great clone recipe! piss in a carboy! huh, huh, ain't I clever!"

 

[blacklab]

Roar.

Your noobishness shows thru on this one. It's actually quite difficult to completely and accurately replicate Bud or other BMC beers.

Do a little research, brotha. Take a look at Pale Lager on the Wiki.
There is a full section on how to clone BMC. If you can pull it off, please let us know.

Crap! I got BudRolled.

 

[dblvsn]

There's only one thing to do to somebody that does this

 

[homebrewer_99]

I make BL all the time...isn't that what I UR-N-8 after drinking some home brew?

 

[the_bird]

Dammit, it lasted until post 14! And by one of out most senior members, of all people!

 

[NWernBrewer]

LOL - I don't think he was knocking the difficulty of replicating a hard-to-homebrew beer, rather than making a harmless little joke on the tendency of people to "hate" or "strongly dislike" a very commercial beer style, then look in on a cloned version.

That is funny - I got burned too.

 

[Revvy]

Mebbe it's not a true n00b, but an ALT playing the troll card...

*Looks around suspiciously at his fellow posters*

I actually wish you HAD succesfully done it (Not that I would drink or make it...yechhhh) but for when we get someone on here looking for a recipe to try doing it themselves....

I'm getting tired of making the same "The closest bud gets to hops is when the delivery truck passes by a lhbs" joke.....

 

[BigKahuna]

 

[Yuri_Rage]

Crap! I got BudRolled.

Isn't that called a joint?

 

[z987k]

I think I found a recipe for it [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu_moia-oVI"]here.[/ame]

 

[Donasay]

I actually have gotten the light american lager down fairly well now with the one problem being that I always add to much hops, for some reason I just can't help it, I like hops.

3lbs of 2 row
3lbs of 6 row
3lbs of gelatinized rice or minute rice.

Mash in at 1.25 quarts per pound at 152 degrees and let sit for 2 hours.

Boil for 60 minutes with an ounce of whatever type of noble hops you can get your hands on these days.

Chill and pitch lager yeast at proper temperature (i prefer the wlp 802 so 50 degrees)

Also crush up 5 Beano tablets and add to primary fermentation.

When you transfer to secondary to lager crush up and add additional beano tablets.

This beer comes out so light it isn't even worth joking about...

For a minute my head almost exploded. My gray matter couldn't put "AWESOME" and "Bud Light" together.

Sure you can: A Bud Light truck went over a cliff...the explosion was awesome!! :rockin:

 

[z987k]

I actually have a lighter ale that goes over great with the piss water drinkers. When we have a party in need of a case of BL I brew this:

American Light Ale
Mash: 148
OG: 1.055
FG: 1.012
ABV: 5.7%
IBU: 10
Loviblond: 3
7.00 lb American two-row
4.00 lb Flaked Corn
0.5 oz Simcoe @ 12% 25 minutes
Yeast: Nottingham

Problem is, when we don't have a party, it sits FOREVER. It's really not a good beer by my standards and I prefer not to drink it.

Step one: buy horses
Step two: collect horse urine
Step three: Profit

 

[Air Pirate]

so *thats* what those clydesdales are for!

It's like the godwin's law of beer forums...wow!

 

[Evan!]

Seriously, can we just get a sticky called "The BMC Punching Bag" so I can know to avoid it? If I see another lame BMC piss joke my head is gonna kasplode. We get it. You don't like american light lager. Wow, good for you. Instead of making lame-o cracks about it, how about you just don't drink it, and STFU for good measure?

Oh, and as for this thread...here's what I think.

WOW, come in to work the next morning to find over 400 views and a bunch of angry people.

As NWernBrewer says above, it WAS just a joke. I've read a ton of all of your guys' posts, thanked you for your invaluable tips and advice, and got the impression that we were a lighthearted group of enthusiasts.

I'm not a troll in any way, shape, or form. Nor am I mocking the complexity of cloning a light lager. If having only 18 posts (or however many) makes me a newb/noob/nub, then so be it.

Man...one harmless joke and all the tightwad high-and-mighties get their panties in a bunch. Go ahead and ban me if that would make you all feel better.

 

[Boerderij_Kabouter]

I thought it was funny Franzi

Don't worry about it, most everyone here is really nice, but weary of ridiculous posters. Also we sport a fair number of EACs!
