The Bakfish Homebrew Club’s 2nd attempt at an experimental beer. This time, it is a Mexican Beer that is not a traditional Mexican Beer. You must attempt to think outside the box, and the delivery date is Cinco De Mayo! So we’ve taken a play on a Mexican Praline with this concocted stout recipe we’ve built. This will also be our first attempt to utilize potassium sorbate as we plan to back sweeten the beer and we will need to stop the fermentation process. Note: if any of our recipes does not specify volume, they are default to 10 gallons. This specific recipe is aRead More →

So we obtained a one gallon oak barrel back in September of last year. We put in a liter of Bib & Tucker Limited Edition Single Bourbon Barrel whiskey in it… and then we drank 2 small pours. The barrel soaked up the rest. Then we took the Yoda’s Yuletide/Bundy’s Bah Humbug Beer and poured it into said barrel. Then we let it sit for three months. We are not patient people. None-the-less, we ended up with 7 bottles. That’s it. In our opinion, it was a lot of effort for seven bottles of a bourbon barrel aged cherry stout. That said, it is prettyRead More →

In 2633 AD, two commandos, Bill Rizer and Lance Bean, of Earth Marine Corp’s Contra unit set out to destroy the alien forces on the Galuga archipelago near New Zealand.

It’s been a while since we’ve brewed a good hop forward IPA so we are going to organize the hell outta this one and see what we can produce…  12 gallon batch (a little more than 10 gallons going into the fermenter). This beer salutes Duck Hunt, and every person that has ever wanted to shoot that giggle canine when you missed a bird. Original Gravity: 1.067 Final Gravity: 1.015 ABV: 6.9%                                                                   Read More →

Little Mac is about to attack with this graham cracker vanilla porter. This completely custom built recipe hopes to provide a full bodied porter with a sweet backend. 11 gallon batch.

The first beer brewed for 2021 and it’s a doozie. After a round or two of beers at a recent Bakfish Homebrew Meetup, a question was thrown out there to allow each person at the table to throw out an ingredient, and we, as a group, would decide on two. Randy Daily threw out “mushrooms”… and it stuck. Vienna Malt was the other ingredient. Therefore, this is our Vienna Malt lager with Shiitake and Porcinni Mushrooms. For those wondering, it is an “in your face” flavor. It’s drinkable, but you won’t be burning through a six pack. That said, I’ve made beer bread with it,Read More →
