I have brewed this several times...and just brewed again. This is a great easy drinking brew that is fun to make. Thanks for the recipe!!

Just wanted to say thanks for this great recipe...

My soon to be new brother in law, drinks only blue moon. So I am hoping this will be a kissing cousin for him to enjoy.

I brewed up the PM version yesterday without to many issues. However, I did plan on fermenting 5.5 gallons, but after pulling out my carboys I realized I only had 5 gallon carboys available. So my SG was slight higher due to less top off water.

Oh well, a little more alcohol never hurt a rehearsal dinner before!

I pitched the yeast pack dry (didn't have time to create a starter) and low and behold within 5 hours I had krausen build up.

I will let you know how the group likes it!

Cheers,

The hot weather and the need to turn around a quick keg to fill up my pipeline resulted in me coming back to this recipe after a couple of years. As it turns out, this is now sitting next to my annual batch of Pumpkin Ale based on Renos' Punkin Ale in the fermentation freezer.

Cheers Reno for 2 great recipes.

Has anyone tried this with a fruit addition? I'm thinking strawberries, peach, or raspberries.

Here is my contribution. I got so worried about making a "banana bomb" that I fermented a bit too low (about 62F). Very little (if any) banana, but a nice taste of clove and decent orange aroma (according to my sister....I didn't really smell it in the finished product). Nice and hazy with a thick head.

Good reviews by all....even my Dad, (edit) who thinks all of my beers are "too hoppy", said he would go back for a second.

Bumping an old thread but looking for a tasty beer to put on tap for spring. This pic alone convinced me to brew this. Putting in an order now for the ingredients!

EDIT: Well, got the ingredients and mashing in now but I had to make some substitutions due to this quarantine causing the LHBS shortage on supplies. They had no Tettnang (or any other noble hops) so I had to substitute for Fuggle. Also had to use safale t-58 yeast.

Please post your results it sounds like an interesting brew that I'd like to try. I'm brewing right now with supplies I got a few days ago. Stuff is easy find but as the days drag on leaving the house isn't a good idea anymore. Sad times indeed.

In the fermenter. Pic of the brewday. I’ll post the results in a few weeks when I keg it. Smelled amazing. The orange aroma was incredible.

Nice! I can't wait, thanks for the update!

Been in the keg about a week now, set and forget carbing so I pulled a glass tonight to check it out. Lots of orange on the nose, good spicy notes from the yeast and a sweetness in the back from the honey I’m assuming. This is going to go down so good in the warm weather. Thanks for the recipe!
