Pekko Farmhouse Ale

Brewed this yesterday, with the intention of finally doing something with those 2oz of Pekko I recently acquired.

For 25liters of 1.047 beer:

2kg Pale
2kg rye malt
1kg Munich I

Mash 90’ at 66°C and batch sparge.

Boil for 70’ with
10g Citra            @T-70
15g Citra            @T-5
15g Sorachi Ace    @T-5
30g Pekko            @hopstand
2oz-30g              @dryhop

Added 10g of crushed grains of paradise and fresh lemon peel (of half a lemon) at T-5’.

Ferment with 3711 French Saison at ambient.

So far, this smells effing awesome.

Follow-up:

Bottled this two weeks ago. Gotta love that Sorachi Ace: it really juices up the entire thing. Not too sure about Pekko, and I’m certainly not picking up the Citra any longer, but yesh, thish ish coming along nishely.
