Welcome to MR.BEER® - Gila Monster Dopplebock

Gila Monster Dopplebock

This brew has a large head, stout body and a thick finish, balanced towards the malt. Its bite can make your movements slow and clumsy, so watch out for that 9.2% abv.

RECIPE INCLUDES:
1 Can Whispering Wheat Weizenbier
1 Can Golden Wheat UME
1 Can Mellow Amber UME
1 Can Creamy Brown UME
1 Packet Dry Brewing Yeast (under lid of beer mix)
2 Packets Sterling Pellet Hops
1 Pouch Wheat Liquid Yeast
1 Muslin Hop Sack
1 Packet One-Step™ Sanitizing Cleanser

NOTE: A DAY OR TWO BEFORE BREWING, ACTIVATE YOUR LIQUID YEAST, FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE BACK OF THE YEAST PACKET.

Step 1: Sanitizing
Follow the steps outlined in your MR.BEER® BEER KIT INSTRUCTIONS. (You can find a copy of these instructions to download by clicking on the "Kits" tab of the website.)

NOTE: BE SURE TO SANITIZE YOUR HOP SACK ALONG WITH ALL YOUR OTHER EQUIPMENT.

Step 2: Brewing
2.1. Fill keg with cold water to the 4-quart mark on the back.

2.2. Remove yeast packet (not needed for this recipe) from under lid of beer mix, then place unopened cans of mix and UME in hot water to make the liquid easier to pour.

2.3. Place both packets (1 oz.) of Sterling pellet hops into the hop sack tying it closed, then trim away excess material.

2.4. Using the sanitized measuring cup, place 4 cups of water into a clean 3-quart pot and bring to a boil, then remove from heat.

2.5. Stir beer mix, UME and hops (in hop sack) into this water. This mixture is called the wort.

NOTE: HOPS MAY APPEAR AS GREEN LEAF PARTICLES AND WILL NOT DISSOLVE. KEEP HOPS IN FERMENTER THE ENTIRE FERMENTATION PERIOD.

2.6. Pour wort into keg. Bring the volume of the keg to the 8.5-quart mark by adding more cold water. Stir vigorously to mix well.

2.7. Pour entire contents of liquid yeast into keg. Stir vigorously again, then screw on lid.

2.8. Ferment by placing the keg out of direct sunlight and in a location with a consistent temperature. Allow beer to FERMENT A MINIMUM OF TWO WEEKS at room temperature (between 68°-76°F).

Step 3: Bottling & Carbonating
Follow the steps outlined in your MR.BEER® BEER KIT INSTRUCTIONS.

TIP: FOR BEST RESULTS ALLOW TO LAGER FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS.
