Roggenbier translates to “Rye Beer”. It is typically 50% Rye malt giving it a characteristic grainy spicy character, which is completed by the classic weizen yeast tartness, spicy clove phenolics and fruity banana esters. With hints of dark stone fruit and caramel flavours it is great Autumn and Winter wheat beer, but due to its medium dry to dry finish it is drinkable all year round.

Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Lalbrew Munich Classic or Mangrove Jack's Bavarian Wheat yeast.

Note on Rye Malt

Rye malt contains a high amount of beta glucan, which increases wort viscosity and may slow runoff during lautering and sparging, and potentially cause a stuck sparge.

A mash rest at 40℃, sometimes called a Beta Glucanase rest, can help to break down the beta glucan in the wort and reduce the risk of a stuck sparge.

As added insurance this recipe includes oat hulls in the mash. The oat hulls do not add any fermentables, but improve the filter bed of the mash to reduce the risk of a stuck sparge.

The ATF Old School American IPA is a classic American IPA from days gone by; displaying piney, earthy, herbal, dank, spicy, floral, and citrus (grapefruit, orange, lemon) hop flavours and aromas on a clean malty base with a hint of crystal sweetness and a firm bitterness with a dry finish.

Panhead Supercharger is an award winning beer that is extremely popular. Panhead describes the beer as follows:

Hops are where it starts for the born-again craft head and Supercharger APA is where Panhead delivers. This is an all-American show with Centennial, Citra and Simcoe overwhelming your nose, kicking you in the taste buds and departing with more bitterness than a Palm Springs divorce. It's a seriously addictive combination.

The ATF Supercharger Clone is our recipe to replicate this much loved beer.

This is our interpretation of Emerson’s Bookbinder. In Emerson’s own words Bookbinder is:

A wonderfully drinkable interpretation of a classic English ale. Bookbinder is a blend of four malts combined with two classic Nelson grown European hops (Fuggles and Riwaka). The beer pours an attractive reddish brown, with a cream coloured head. Bookbinder has a sweet, perfumey, malt and hop aroma with a soft, malty, fruit and vinous palate that is both full flavoured and refreshing with a long, gently drying finish.

Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Froth Vape (Assumed Origin: Boddington’s),the yeast currently by Emerson's to produce Bookbinder. Alternatively we recommend using Lallemand Verdant IPA, or you could also try Fermentis S-04 or Mangrove Jack's Liberty Bell.

ATF No Daze Haze is full of juicy hazy goodness and is only 3.1% (if brewed to spec). Wonderfully smooth with plenty of citrus and tropical fruit flavour and aroma it is almost like drinking the best fruit juice you've ever had.

Note on Dry Hopping

We recommend reducing the temperature of the beer to 16℃ before dry hopping to reduce the risk of the dry hop causing additional fermentation (dry hop creep) and increasing the ABV of the beer above the target 3.1%.

When cooling the beer we recommend capping the fermenter and using co2 to apply positive pressure (inside the fermenter) to avoid air being sucked in as the beer cools and shrinks as this may oxidise the beer.
