Homebrew Recipes

Contents

A note about these homebrew recipes: they are designed for 5 gallons of packaged beer with 5.5 gallons going into the fermentor. I assume roughly 70-72% brewhouse efficiency on a batch sparge setup, 1.25 gallon/hour boil-off (~15%), Tinseth IBU calculations, Whirlfloc and yeast nutrient added at 15 minutes left in boil, and some salts added to 70:30 RO:San Diego tap water (final ion concentrations are usually noted). Typically the recipe will be available to download in BeerXML format at the bottom of the recipe and can be loaded into any number of brew software (I prefer BeerSmith).

Ales

  • Ain’t No Hallertauer Girl – A crisp, juicy IPA made with the new German aroma hops.
  • Chama Pale Ale – A solid pale ale base for my review of the Chama hops.
  • De Kleine – Belgian Session IPA.
  • Extra Bestest Boy – A supremely drinkable ESB in the classic English style.
  • Ron Diego – A pale ale showcasing the experimental hop HBC 438 “Ron Mexico.”
  • San Diego Bitter – English style Special Bitter hopped “San Diego” style.
  • Totes McOats – New England Pale Ale. It’s so juicy!

Lagers

  • Fiesta Cumpleaños – A Vienna lager worth celebrating every day.
  • Geburtstagsparty – A crisp, well balanced Vienna Lager inspired by “traditional” Viennas.
  • Latir Pils – A simple and delicious German Pilsner as a base for my review of Latir hops.
  • Schwarz – A smooth, slightly nutty schwarzbier that could be mistaken for a stout.

Sour/Funky

  • Mit Schuss – A by-the-numbers Berliner Weisse.
  • Coolship Project – An ongoing project of coolshiped wild beer.
