Big slug of leftover yeast from a second 5 gallon batch of the Stooge Wheat Beer. This is the 4th generation repitch for this crop of yeast. All of it's previous growing periods in beers of ~1.050 strength. This hardy trooper yielded ~3L of slurry to hit into this barleywine. Unfortunately after it's swim in the 1.098 wort the yeast will have to be retired.

Notes |
|
Scorching Hot day in the shop for this brew. Fortunately, nature and the mechanics skills of Kent Fletcher kept us in better shape than can be expected for summertime brewing.
|
Originally, our brew was going to be a Biere de Garde to commemorate Bastille Day in France. (Pres. Chirac proved fleet of foot in his celebrations today.) Unfortunately, BdG yeast is scarce and we couldn't decide upon any substitutes. By the time we located a few bottles for culturing the brew date was too near to insure a healthy colony of yeast. Instead we decided on a double tip of the hat with a wine that a Frenchman would be horrified by and a beer from their French speaking Walloonian neighbors. The rye was entirely Cullen's insistent touch.
|
The 25% portion of rye meant we took extra percautions not to compact the mash bed during runoff. In the unfermented worts the rye offered interesting characters, oily body, bright red color, and a slickness on your fingers. Our hope is that the rye will add a forward richness to the barleywine with a drying finish. To the saison we really only hoped for an unusual flavor. We'll see how the brews do over the course of the year.
