HB Vienna Lager
Looks Great
Thanks - honestly in 27 years of brewing this is one of the very best I’ve ever done if I do say so. I’ve been focused on lagers the last couple years.

I've been enjoying your pictures. You really nailed the color, it looks delicious. In fact, you've inspired me to dust of my Vienna recipe and make a hole in my schedule ~mid-Dec. I'm looking forward to it!
This is what I did with it. 3.5 gallon batch. No melanoidin or any cheats.

A glass of my accidental Helles while I clean up the brewery. I made another batch of that Munich lager thing today.
Speak of the devil, here it is.

That's very kind of you, I appreciate it!
Bags are packed, we're heading to San Diego tomorrow for 10 days. Woo hoo!
Hanging out now with some HM raspberry hard lemonade.

None of us are in any competition with each other. No harm in sharing recipes. I like when other people do it too.That's very kind of you, I appreciate it!

Dunkelweizen for the Friday Fish Grill!
I’ll have to look for some of their beers when I visit in the spring. Will likely have a connecting flight there (Charlotte) but will spend majority of my time in Wilmington and Mt. Airy area
Woo hoo indeed. You'll catch the beginning of beer week!

Fieldwork Brewing, Adrianne. A 9.5% Belgian style Tripel.
Still working my way through my 6-pack of ACME. I love it when brewers keep an old standard going and going and going!
Last time I think I mentioned something to the effect that ACME was the bouncing tennis ball of the beer industry. Once a staple of the California market, ACME would have been recognized by our Grandparents! “Still drinkin’ that Sonny? Why I remember when ACME was brought back after prohibition!”
Originally spun out of the mind of Olympia Beer founder Leopold Schmidt, ACME was around in the early 1900’s with a brewery out of San Francisco, not far from the Embarcadero. It’s still a great area… Good times!

In that spirt, here's the UK IPA I've been posting. The grist is bog standard, but I've put a twist in the hopping technique.
OG: 1.047
FG: 1.007
46 IBU
Water: 2.5:1 Sulfate/Chloride
90% Warminster Maris Otter
10% Invert #1
Strike at 148F/64.5C for 30min
Underlet to 158F/70C for 30min
Minimize your sparge volume by maximizing the underlet volume
28 IBU EKGs @ 60min
14 IBU EKGs @ 20min
5 IBU whirlpool @170F for 40min (that's 2oz for a 6gal batch)
1oz EGK keg hops/5gal keg
Ferment with an attenuative UK strain. I used Jasper Yeast's version of the Fullers strain because it's far more attenuative than Pub/WY1968. If you can't get Jasper, use the Thames Valley strain. Pub/WY1968 will make a nice ale, but it'll drink fatter and lack the assertively dry finish.
