A great drinking ale, this beer is a palate pleaser for any occasion. Low bitterness and low alcohol content make this the perfect beer to drink all day long without getting too drunk. For those on a tight budget, this beer is also incredibly inexpensive to brew (a 5-gallon batch costs around $15 for grain, hops, and yeast at my local brew store)!
"The Doctor" Coconut Kava Porter
This is a truly unique porter, with amazing flavors to boot. It is essentially the same recipe as my Coco Loco Moco Porter (recipe below), however I have soaked a pound of whole kava root in the beer for 4 hours prior to kegging (or bottling, if you wish). The resulting beer is a truly relaxing brew!
Crafted in memory of Jack McCorkle (1988-2102). This is a beer that has been specifically crafted in order to honor the beer that Jack loved most: super-hopped, high gravity Imperial IPA's. This is a beer that is truly for the heart.
Mulling spices, fuggles hops, and some darker grains give this winter ale a very drinkable richness that is reminiscent of sitting by a warm fire on a snowy day. Unlike some winter warmers, this beer is not too thick, bitter, or overly spiced. Yum!
In my mind, dubbels are the holy grail of Belgian beers, and they are one of my favorite beers to drink when winter approaches. Hearty, sweet, and rich, but not filling like a stout, this beer has flavors elements of raisin, spice, plum, and rum.
This coconut porter recipe uses freshly toasted flaked coconut and vanilla to compliment the rich and chocolatey malts. It has flavors of dark roasted coffee beans, vanilla cream, and dark chocolate on the nose; vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup and espresso on the front end; coconut cream and mild hops on the back end.
White Hippo Witbier IPAThis recipe is a modified version of a witbier (also known as white beer). Coriander, sweet orange peel, and lemon compliment the variety of hops used. The flavor profile has citrus and guava on the nose; lemon, apple, and rose on the front end; tangerine on the back end. This is one of my most favorite IPAs of all time.
This is my first IPA recipe, and it turned out really, really well. Floral and grapefuity on the nose; lemon, orange, and cream on the front end; pine and grapefruit on the back end. This IPA is not overly hoppy, nor is it super malty. This beer pleased all of my IPA-loving friends, and even some of those who didn't care for IPA's at all.
