Hairy Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 This is a beer I brewed a while ago. I really liked Malt Shovel's Hoppy Hefe and I based this recipe on a creation by Browndog from AHB. Well I really just ripped it off but converted it to a partial mash brew with some minor tweaks [innocent] I have been sampling it along the way and it took a long time to condition and settle down; probably due to the amount of late hopping. But if you have the patience to wait then it will turn into a really nice hoppy ale that, despite the ABV, is actually quite sessionable. 1.5kg Liquid wheat malt 2.3kg Ale Malt 1.2kg Wheat malt 250g Caramalt Motueka (6.5%) - 20g @ 30 minutes Citra (13.5%) - 20g @ 30 minutes Motueka - 45g @ 1 minute Citra - 45g @ 1 minute Motueka - 25g Dry hop Citra - 25g Dry hop Safale K-97 yeast 21 litres Mashed at 66 degrees OG - 1059 FG - 1015 IBU - 46 ABV - 6.3% This is also an easy recipe to convert to an extract brew. Calculate a malt bill to be 60% barley and 40% wheat. I think Coopers wheat is 50/50 so you can use this with some LDM plus some dex to get the OG and FG in line. As I said earlier, it has 180g hops in it and 140g of those are late, so it does take a while to calm down. But it is worth it in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
