I thought we had a trade to do this summer ......

I was only able to score a six pack of tropicalia, souvenir from the brewery. In GA you cannot buy from the brewery, and was told at the brewery it would be hard to find at the moment.

I am going back and will be searching out Automatic, which I thought was better than Tropicalia. Hopefully Tropicalia will be available, I can for sure get it as another souvenir.

I'll let you know when I have it.

That would be awful. I kindof want to put it in the brew calculator just to see what it says. Then start building a grain bill to balance it.

Just make sure it's a quadruple Russian roids stout

In a 5.5% pale ale I get 592 IBU. Go for it.

90 lbs of 2-row in a five gallon batch. . Ibu and abv both in the mid 40's. Someone brew it. Remmy?

Yep that's my Roxie aka "Big Bookie".

I have always wanted one for numerous reasons, I could never pull the trigger due to pricing, especially around here being 10 miles from MS State.

A buddy of mine gave her to me, he had 3.

Gunna have to make sure those IBUs are balanced with an FG of 1.090. Probably will have to try to ferment LME

 

[ThatVideoKid]

Actually I guess if you ferment straight LME you get one hell of a beer. Boy if only yeast could do that. View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1470875643.546170.jpg

I also vote that someone should try...

Maybe adding in a couple pounds of fruit in secondary just to tip the scales and balance out that extract twang 😉

 

[RevKev]

I was gunna put in ~50% 2-row and ~35% Torrified Wheat with some Flaked Oats and Wheat to balance

I was actually thinking that this would be better as a Galaxy/C120 smash

HB blonde APA with Northern Brewer and HBC 342 hops. Pretty darn tasty.View attachment 1470877836685.jpg

Raining beer here.

HB saison, Oskar Blues IPA (such a good beer for the price), and two pulls of an IPA I kegged this morning. Let me say, well I've said it a million times, Columbus-Simcoe combo cannot be beat.

I took a stab at this I only brew from recipes anymore but here's what I'm thinking. One ounce of Columbus to give you a better Bitter End. Lighten the load at 15 minutes which will give you too many ibus. Added some flame out Hops and increase the dry hop and shorten the time. If I were you I would Brew elevated IPA recipe as it won a Great American Beer Festival medal and the Brewer released the recipe. But to each their own. I think either way you've decided on a great beer there. I would run the ibus on both what I suggested and yours.

I'd get this of the 15's and add them as whirlpool. Whirlpool for at least 45 minutes or u r wasting your time. I'd try to whirlpool for and hr. I always start my whirlpool at 185 and go for an hour.

Or get rid of the 5,s and add at whirlpool and go for an hour. Definitely use a Bittering charge at 45 or 60.

I have some Chinook I could use for bittering.. always liked how smooth it was. That's a good point though I think I am going to tweak it a bit lightening the 15 minute load to get better hop utilization. I'm gunna plug it in, I know mine led to 56.2 IBU @ 10 gallons thanks for the input though I'm trying to nail down a house IPA

And another labatt
