White Labs WLP008 East Coast Ale
White Labs WLP008 East Coast Ale
Our "Brewer Patriot" strain can be used to reproduce many of the American versions of classic beer styles. Similar neutral character of WLP001, but less attenuation, less accentuation of hop bitterness, increased flocculation, and a little tartness. Very
Notes
Skin and cube one medium sugar pumpkin (kind used for pies) Sprinkle with brown sugar and roast at 350 for 45 minutes. Steep specialty grains and pumpkin at 150 degrees for 30 minutes. Remove from steeping liquid. Pumpkin can be put in a grain bag and added back to wort for the last 10 minutes of boil, then add to fermenter, this will add more pumkin flavor, but make racking a pain. Add spices with 10 minutes left in the boil
