Saisonal Seasonal -- a dubbel brewed with Saison yeast, and infused with spice tea containing cinnamon, coriander and orange peel.
No pictures came through for me.Just tapped this one. Altbier. Malty, clean, a little bitter. A nice change up from the hop bombs. Look at that head. Its the best thing about the 23 degree day.

And the lacing just stays around, all the way to the bottom.

I need to get started on rebrewing this one.
I don't know... just something about the shape of the glass... looks good to me!Saisonal Seasonal -- a dubbel brewed with Saison yeast, and infused with spice tea containing cinnamon, coriander and orange peel.View attachment 708437
That looks great! Mind if I ask how you added the Hibiscus, since I'm brewing one on mondayRaspberry Hibiscus Wheat, kegged mid-May, still (blessedly) full of character...

Having to build a new keezer at the end of summer threw everything for a loop brewing-wise but thankfully what I had kegged in advance had good legs
Cheers!
How did you enjoy the opal malts? Are they providing the profile they claim?Voss pale mild:
![]()
82% Mecca Grade Lamonta
9% Mecca Grade Opal 44
9% Aromatic
21 IBU of Amarillo
Lallemand Voss kveik yeast
3.7% and full of flavor!
I've used 44 a few times now, but always in pretty small quantities. This is the first time I've used it in a pale beer and I definitely get a bit of a cookie dough thing from it, which I could see being called "reminiscent of almond roca." In this beer, it enhances the maltiness (as does the Aromatic).How did you enjoy the opal malts? Are they providing the profile they claim?
Thanks for the info. Def sounded like a nice addition to a brown aleI've used 44 a few times now, but always in pretty small quantities.

I'm planning to do a barleywine with a relatively high percentage (25%+) of Opal 44 at some point.
That's a sweet glass.
I can hardly imagine a 13.5% brew to be thinner than desirable. I usually find beers with 7% or more to be too thick and alcoholic.Coffee infused Russian Imperial Stout I call "Coffee Ruskie Business." Turned out at 13.5%. Nice chocolatey notes with coffee pronounced and a boozy finish. I am digging it, but the mouthfeel is not what I was shooting for on this one. I've brewed this several times, but this is the first coffee infused edition. Flavor profiles are on point, but again just a bit thinner than I'd hoped. View attachment 711104
