Fermenting this recipe with a traditional Kolsch strain at cooler temperatures (think 60 - 65F depending on yeast selection) help to keep any fermentation-derived flavor compounds to a minimum and allow a gentle ester profile of apple and faint stone fruit to remain.

The fresh, bready and slightly sweet malt foundation of the beer is met with a single and modest hop addition to really balance the complexion of the underlying Kolsch. Fermenting this recipe with a traditional Kolsch strain at cooler temperatures (think 60 - 65F depending on yeast selection) help to keep any fermentation-derived flavor compounds to a minimum and allow a gentle ester profile of apple and faint stone fruit to remain. This modest level of esters in the finished beer sets the stage perfectly for the addition of complementary ripe mango flavor. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe \u003ca title=\"Silver Cloud\" href=\"\/products\/silver-cloud-flavor-extracts\"\u003eSilver Cloud\u003c\/a\u003e flavoring extract provided in this recipe kit is the best we have ever found, with true to nature flavors and aromas. Please note that you will not use the entire bottle of flavoring in this batch, so it is necessary to measure it to make your flavoring addition at the bottling\/kegging step. The starting recommendation is to start with adding 15 ml (1 tbsp) of the extract to the new beer and then slowly add more until you have reached the desired mango flavor intensity. Personally, the sweet spot for my tastes is 20 ml. This will provide a noticeable mango flavor.

Who says you can’t have both at the same time? We are proud to release this recipe kit, and even prouder of our partnership with Backstory Coffee Roasters. In the spirit of “keeping it local”, we found the absolute best coffee we could for this recipe. Backstory Coffee Roasters is located in Saint Paul, MN, and has been producing amazing coffee since 2014. Their secret is meticulous attention to detail, from sourcing the finest green coffee beans possible, impeccable diligence during the roasting process, and mindful scrutiny of brewing the perfect cup. With such care put into the creation of this awesome coffee, we had to put it in a beer that lives up to the quality of the star ingredient. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e Utilizing Backstory’s Narrator Coffee Blend, this smooth stout delivers everything you could ever desire in a coffee beer. Characteristic roast, faint dark caramel notes, and nuances of bittersweet chocolate and rounded out with a wallop of smooth coffee with nutty and chocolatey flavors. The base beer is something of an English\/American hybrid, utilizing English malts but brewed to a decidedly more American strength. A single hop addition at the beginning of the boil provides enough bitterness to balance the slight sweetness of the malt underpinning, and the classic British ale yeast provides a host of esters that serve to add an enticing complexity to an already elaborate beer. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e For optimal results, be sure not to steep the coffee too hot to avoid getting any harsh flavors. Ideally, after the boil is conducted it is best to allow the wort to cool to approximately 200 degrees F before adding the coffee. This is the temperature that many coffee aficionados agree is the ideal temperature for getting the best flavor from coffee grounds without extracting any overly bitter or harsh notes.

Who says you can’t have both at the same time? We are proud to release this recipe kit, and even prouder of our partnership with Backstory Coffee Roasters. In the spirit of “keeping it local”, we found the absolute best coffee we could for this recipe. Backstory Coffee Roasters is located in Saint Paul, MN, and has been producing amazing coffee since 2014. Their secret is meticulous attention to detail, from sourcing the finest green coffee beans possible, impeccable diligence during the roasting process, and mindful scrutiny of brewing the perfect cup. With such care put into the creation of this awesome coffee, we had to put it in a beer that lives up to the quality of the star ingredient. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e Utilizing Backstory’s Narrator Coffee Blend, this smooth stout delivers everything you could ever desire in a coffee beer. Characteristic roast, faint dark caramel notes, and nuances of bittersweet chocolate and rounded out with a wallop of smooth coffee with nutty and chocolatey flavors. The base beer is something of an English\/American hybrid, utilizing English malts but brewed to a decidedly more American strength. A single hop addition at the beginning of the boil provides enough bitterness to balance the slight sweetness of the malt underpinning, and the classic British ale yeast provides a host of esters that serve to add an enticing complexity to an already elaborate beer. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e For optimal results, be sure not to steep the coffee too hot to avoid getting any harsh flavors. Ideally, after the boil is conducted it is best to allow the wort to cool to approximately 200 degrees F before adding the coffee. This is the temperature that many coffee aficionados agree is the ideal temperature for getting the best flavor from coffee grounds without extracting any overly bitter or harsh notes. As far as fermentation is concerned, this particular yeast strain (if using liquid yeast) will tear through fermentation and then drop out of suspension quickly. Although these are great traits for an ale yeast, this one is notorious for producing diacetyl.

Everyone loves a cold, crisp, refreshing, and approachable light beer to take the edge off a hot day, or to simply enjoy while lounging in the backyard around a fire. Out of the various regions producing light lagers, I would have to say that Mexican brewers really nailed the style - easy sipping beers that just exude refreshment and relaxation. These beers are really some of my favorite light lagers, and this recipe is my take on the classic beers brewed around Mexico. To add a bit of a twist, 100% pure agave syrup is utilized to both increase the gravity of the beer and also to encourage a high level of attenuation to ensure the final product is as dry, crisp and refreshing as absolutely possible. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe recipe may seem simple, but as some wise-ass once said, “keep it simple, stupid”. With the KISS principle in mind, I set forth to create a recipe that not only captures the essence of a light Mexican lager, but also employed the use of another region-specific ingredient - agave syrup. Since agave syrup is highly fermentable, a dash of dextrin malt is added to the recipe to maintain a slight bit of body to prevent the beer from becoming overly dry, and in the case of the all-grain recipe, a slightly elevated mash temperature will also help to hold on to some body in the beer. Keeping in line with classic brewing techniques of these thirst-quenching beers, traditional noble hops are used to impart a mild bitterness and offer a hint of prototypical herbal, floral and slightly earthy flavor to the beer. The recipe calls for a whole ounce of Tettnang hops towards the end of the boil, but if you would prefer a more subdued hop flavor in the beer, simply cut that addition in half, or even quarter it to accentuate the slightly sweet and grainy malt character and to coax out the delicate flavor left behind by the agave addition. As with any lager, always be sure to pitch a large, healthy dose of yeast and keep that baby cool. In my brewing trials, I pitched the yeast at 48F (a bit below the recommended fermentation temperature for the liquid strains), and let the batch free rise to 52F to complete the fermentation process. Once the yeast appears to be finished, a diacetyl rest is always recommended to be absolutely sure the yeast has done its job and cleaned up any possible off flavors. From there, lager as usual, package, pour and finally enjoy when your day calls for a cold refreshing beer. ¡Salud!” \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Northern Brewer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42370099675317,"sku":"B12050","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2785\/6868\/products\/B1205X-Mexican-Agave-Lager_3.jpg?v=1756919677"},{"product_id":"mexican-agave-lager-all-grain-recipe-kit","title":"Mexican Agave Lager All Grain Recipe Kit","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\nMexican Agave Lager\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nCombining an incredibly refreshing light lager and distinctly Mexican agave, Mexican Agave Lager is one seriously satisfying beer.

Everyone loves a cold, crisp, refreshing and approachable light beer to take the edge off a hot day, or to simply enjoy while lounging in the backyard around a fire. Out of the various regions producing light lagers, I would have to say that Mexican brewers really nailed the style - easy sipping beers that just exude refreshment and relaxation. These beers are really some of my favorite light lagers, and this recipe is my take on the classic beers brewed around Mexico. To add a bit of a twist, 100% pure agave syrup is utilized to both increase the gravity of the beer and also to encourage a high level of attenuation to ensure the final product is as dry, crisp and refreshing as absolutely possible.\n\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe recipe may seem simple, but as some wise-ass once said, “keep it simple, stupid”. With the KISS principle in mind, I set forth to create a recipe that not only captures the essence of a light Mexican lager, but also employed the use of another region-specific ingredient - agave syrup. Since agave syrup is highly fermentable, a dash of dextrin malt is added to the recipe to maintain a slight bit of body to prevent the beer from becoming overly dry, and in the case of the all-grain recipe, a slightly elevated mash temperature will also help to hold on to some body in the beer. Keeping in line with classic brewing techniques of these thirst-quenching beers, traditional noble hops are used to impart a mild bitterness and offer a hint of prototypical herbal, floral and slightly earthy flavor to the beer. The recipe calls for a whole ounce of Tettnang hops towards the end of the boil, but if you would prefer a more subdued hop flavor in the beer, simply cut that addition in half, or even quarter it to accentuate the slightly sweet and grainy malt character and to coax out the delicate flavor left behind by the agave addition. As with any lager, always be sure to pitch a large, healthy dose of yeast and keep that baby cool. In my brewing trials, I pitched the yeast at 48F (a bit below the recommended fermentation temperature for the liquid strains), and let the batch free rise to 52F to complete the fermentation process. Once the yeast appears to be finished, a diacetyl rest is always recommended to be absolutely sure the yeast has done its job and cleaned up any possible off flavors. From there, lager as usual, package, pour and finally enjoy when your day calls for a cold refreshing beer. ¡Salud!”\n\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Northern Brewer","offers":[{"title":"Crushed","offer_id":42370156363957,"sku":"B12054","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Unmilled","offer_id":42370156396725,"sku":"B12053","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2785\/6868\/products\/B1205X-Mexican-Agave-Lager_3-AG.jpg?v=1756919675"},{"product_id":"kentucky-common-extract-recipe-kit","title":"Bluegrass Benchmark Kentucky Common Extract Recipe Kit","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBluegrass Benchmark Kentucky Common\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce a massively popular regional style centered around Louisville, this uniquely American beer style fell out of favor with the onset of Prohibition.

This style emerged from the New England region in the early 2010s and has since become a fan-favorite across the globe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHazy IPA Style Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSRM:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3–7 (Straw to Light Amber)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIBU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25–60\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Gravity (OG):\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.060–1.085\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6–9%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMore Hop-Forward, Juicy Beer Kits to Explore:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/blackberry-milkshake-ipa-extract-recipe-kit\" title=\"Blackberry Milkshake IPA Extract Recipe Kit\"\u003eBlackberry Milkshake IPA Beer Kit\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/thiolized-swig-of-sunbeams-extract\" title=\"Thiolized Swig of Sunbeams Extract Beer Recipe Kit\"\u003eThiolized Swig of Sunbeams IPA Beer Kit\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Northern Brewer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45240236343477,"sku":"B11730","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2785\/6868\/files\/B11733-Haze-Phazer-IPA.jpg?v=1756919138"},{"product_id":"haze-phazer-hazy-ipa-all-grain-kit","title":"Haze Phazer NEIPA All Grain Beer Recipe Kit","description":"\u003ch2\u003eHaze Phazer NEIPA All-Grain Beer Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeam up big aroma and flavor with Haze Phazer NEIPA—all-grain edition.
