  4. The League "Ein-Stein" - Munich Dunkel Recipe Kit (All Grain)

    The League "Ein-Stein" - Munich Dunkel Recipe Kit (All Grain)

    1 Review(s)

    This recipe has been designed to be consistent with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 8A-Munich Dunkel.

    Ein-Stein is a Munich Dunkel recipe designed for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery.

    It doesn’t take a genius to figure out where this dark European lager originates from. It hails from Munich in Germany way back in the 1830’s, coinciding with the development of Munich malt.  As it turns out, Gladfield malt here in NZ makes some very fine Munich malt of their own. If you haven’t tried it then this a great recipe to give it a whirl as the base malt.

    Munich Dunkels are great mid-strength drinking. They present deep coppery brown and malty with toasted bread notes, hints of chocolate and caramel and a notable absence of roasty burnt notes. They are medium in body but with no cloying sweetness and a gentle bittering that makes for a smooth rich and nourishing lager. For the more adventurous brewer, this recipe is an ideal place to try out your skills with decoction mashing. The option of a simple double decoction approach is included in the instructions to get you started, after which you might want to explore the possibility of a more intensive triple decoction to further develop those deep malty flavours. Experiment and have fun, it’s definitely not quantum physics. Prost!

    This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 21B - Specialty IPA - NE IPA

    This beer was brewed for the NZ Hops release party of the Hort 4337 trial hop, but thanks to Covid19 that didn't happen. Good news for you - instead of going to a group of commercial brewers & hop growers, it's now available for sale - and this is the kit to brew it yoursel! It's loaded with 4337 hops with a little backup of Mosaic hops.

    The malt is mainly Pilsner & Vienna by BestMalz from Germany supported by two different types of Oats and some wheat malt.

    Target ABV: 6.5%

    The League "40 Days" - Rye IPA All Grain Kit 23l

    This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 21B - Specialty IPA - Rye IPA.

    40 Days is another one of our quarantine (ever wonder where that word comes from?) brews, giving us hop heads a little bit of spicy joy this winter.

    An all Gladfield malt base with a good amount of three different types of rye malt for that little difference. When did you brew your last rye IPA?
    We went with a massive dose of all American on the hops, a mix of citrusy, piney classics (Amarillo, Centennial, Columbus) with an added tropical dimension (Ekuanot). Fermented with a classic West coast ale yeast.

    ABV: 6%

    The ultimate battle of hops - Phazers Episode II

    4337 has grown up and is now known as the mighty Nectaron.

    Nectaron vs Galaxy are at it again - this time they're even more powerful with the use of Verdant - the juiciest yeast since you're glass of freshly squeezed in the morning.

    Don't miss this limited release - only available until one of these hop super powers is sold into oblivion!
