Waylon Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Ive Just experimented with a recipe for this amazing brew... Its fermenting @12degress.. Its not a overly dark beer more like a brown lager, The original beer is reddish brown dark lager “Tradition” with its mild aroma of hops smells like roasted malt and impresses with its sweet caramel flavor which is followed by a slight bitterness. Im hoping with my simple recipe for moderate bitterness of about 26 IBU, And the malt balance I want a mild toffee caramel sweetness, Hope shes a good brew and something close to the original bayrisch dunkle 10.5 litres 1x 1.5 Liquid Munich malt extract 125g (caramalt)crystal 40-60 83g dark crystal 250-300 41g chocolate malt 500-800 17g hallertau 60minuts 11 hallertau 30 minuts 1x saflager 34/70 (fermenting at 12degress) My final bottle AV im hoping should be around 4.9-5.1 OG was way out when I did my gravity reading... vary frustrating it was way high @1068 crazy I thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waylon Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 Just Tried this brew! Its actually scary how close my extract clone of this brew is; Its still vary young in the bottle... but I think I got the grain bill down pat! I can honestly say if you like the Bayrisch dunkle you will love this. 50 litre brew in the books for next winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Von Blotto Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Can you get a bottle of the original anywhere here? Wouldn't mind trying it myself from that description. Should do a side by side blind test with it vs. your brew. I've done this with a couple of different beers in the last couple of years and it is interesting and awesome to see how close they have been to the originals.

ICzed Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Hey OVB, you should be able to get it at your local 1st Choice or Dan Murphy's. It is a really tasty beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Von Blotto Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Thanks Mark, I will most likely be visiting a Dan's on Friday so I'll definitely have a look for it. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
