English Barley Wine • All Grain • 5.75 gal
Is there such a thing as a "Triple Sticke?" The base for this brew started with the Classic Styles' Cowboy Alt recipe. BeerTools doesn't have a Sticke category and who knows where this fits in to that, but it seemed to fall in line well with this English BW category. I'm pleasantly surprised with how this turned out. Rich malt character, yet very clean, and balanced well with hop assertiveness. It's still a little hot given the ABV which should mellow with time. I'll update down the line once this cellars for a while.

Carafa Special® TYPE II; Weyermann®
German-grown two-row spring barley (2004 harvest). Product Characteristics: CARAFA SPECIAL® is the de-husked version of CARAFA®. Using our unique process, we remove the husks from carefully selected grains before malting and roasting them. Reduces astringency and bitterness, while adding coffee-brown color, a coffee-like bouquet, dark-beer aroma, as well as body and mouthfeel to finished beer—but without introducing harsh flavors. Even small amounts of CARAFA SPECIAL® malts in the grain bill produce dark beers of unusual smoothness and mildness with a firm, creamy, white head. Recommended Quantities: Up to 5% of total grain bill Suitability (beer styles): Lagers: Dunkel, Doppelbock Ales: Dark, Stout, Altbier
- 1.25 oz
Magnum - 11.6 AA% pellets; boiled 60 min
Magnum
Bred in 1980 at Germany’s Hüll Hop Research Center, this high-alpha variety is renowned for its exceptionally large, heavy cones. Hallertauer Magnum delivers excellent yields and, like many Hüll-developed hops, boasts a strong resistance to disease.
- 2.0 oz
Tettnanger - 3.1 AA% pellets; boiled 15 min
Tettnanger
Mild, slightly spicy. 'Noble'.
- 1 tsp
Irish Moss - last 10 mins of boil (omitted from calculations)
Irish Moss
A dried red-brown marine algae. Fining agent to remove large proteins. Negatively charged polymer attracts positively charged protein-tannin complexes (extracted from grain husks and hops) during the boil. This action is aided by the clumping of proteins in the boiling process. Irish moss settles to the bottom of the brew kettle with spent hops and hot break material at the end of the boil.
