Kal, have you ever bottled and moderately aged this beer? As expected for a hoppy beer it loses a lot of flavor but I was surprised just how much this one in particular changed.

mvakoc - what kind of bottle caps are you using? The "oxygen-absorbing" ones?

I usually buy the oxygen caps. It definitely has an oxidized, sherry flavor hint. The bottling process I used for this was the same as others but I noticed aging with this particular beer far more than any other.
I really hate bottling and rarely do it these days.

Is Janet's Brown Ale, similar to say Sam Smith's Nut Brown, or is it hoppier than that? It seems like a nut brown isn't hoppy, but this might be. Just wondering about the malt versus hop balance.

I want to brew this one next. Can someone help me understand what adding hops during the mash means, exactly? Do I add hops to the mashtun at the same time as I'm mashing-in?

Kal - I noticed the AHA recipe has dextrose but I didn't see it in yours. Did you increase the base grain and forego the dextrose?

This is a recipe by well known home brewer Mike McDole (aka 'Tasty' on the forums he frequents).
It's a recipe that got some great publicity when it took gold at the 2004 National Homebrew Competition (NHC) - it was entered under category 23 Specialty Ale.
Some may want to call it an American Brown Ale but is a bit outside the numbers for that style because it has slightly too much hops and alcohol. You could call it an Imperial American Brown Ale I suppose (if that category existed). |
Just listened to The Session, with Tasty McDole (regular) and Gordon Strong (Guest, BJCP President) talking about the new 2014 BJCP Guidelines.
The new guidelines have a category 21B, Specialty IPA, which covers White, Black, Belgian and other varieties, as well as allowing, like all categories, strength variations (Session, double, Imperial, etc)
Russian River Janet's Brown is listed as a commercial example under 21B - Sprecialty IPA, under the subheading of "Brown IPA".
Gordon and Tasty agreed that under the new Guidelines, it would be "Category 21B - Specialty IPA - American Brown Session IPA"
Just got to a computer and googled the recipe and came across this post first, so figured I'd post an update.
Paul
