Taste Notes

This was the beer that was given to each of the attendees of this year’s Houston Foam Ranger’s Dixie Cup Homebrew Competition. The theme was Fredopoly, based on the board game Monopoly and in honor of our annual speaker and homebrew pioneer, Fred Eckhardt. Dixie Cup Boardwalk Belgian Quadrupel 5 gallons/19 L, all grain; OG = 1.090; FG = 1.020; IBU = 30; SRM = 15–17; ABV = 9.3%

Notes

Step by Step: Mash grains at 152 °F (67 °C) for 90 minutes. Boil wort for 90 minutes adding hops per scheduled times and adding spices and sugars at end of boil. Cool wort to room temperature and drain or rack the wort off of the trub. Aerate the cool wort and oxygenate. Ferment at 72 °F (22 °C) for 21 days in the primary and 1 week in the secondary. I split 5 gallons btw Wyeast 1214 and White Labs 500. White Labs 500 is more plum & spice; Wyeast 1214 is fruiter 2nd time I skipped the grains of paradise - very spicy/peppery ( especially if you use WLP500 which is spicy by itself ) Cheers Mark Law 916.773.5977 Home 916.795.1377 Work P.S. I, Slyko, had the 2nd revision & it was FANTASTIC!
