If you've never tried a Belgian IPA, I would highly recommend trying a Houblon Chouffe Dobbelen IPA Tripel. Our January beer is loosely based on it.
Ryan and I brewed this past Thursday. Ryan Beld was also invited, but like last time, he was extremely late. He still hasn't shown up. Brewing details after the jump.
1/25/11
Yeast starter made using 1C DME, 1qt H2O and 3/4 tsp yeast nutrient. WLP545 (2nd gen Von Bora) pitched.
1/27/11
7:00 Water heated (2 Gal)
7:25 1 lb CaraPils and 1 lb Vienna grains steeped @ 155°
8:00 Grains sparged with 1/2 Gal water @ 155°
8:20 2 lbs Belgian Candi sugar & 9.3 lbs Pilsner LME added
8:52 Boil started, 1 oz Magnum hops added
9:22 1 oz Magnum hops added
9:37 1 tsp Irish moss & 1 tsp yeast nutrient added
9:42 1 oz Styrian Goldings hops added
9:52 Flameout, 1 oz Amarillo hops added
10:56 Yeast pitched @ 70°
O.G. = 1.079
This one will be dry-hopped with another 1oz of Amarillo once it is racked to the secondary.
Our projected F.G. is 1.020, which would be just under 8% ABV.
