Boysenberry Imperial Stout Recipe
- 15 1/4 lb Bulk, light extract
- 3/4 lb Roasted barley
- 3/4 lb Black patent malt
- 3/4 lb Chocolate malt
- 2 lb English crystal malt
- 3 3/4 ounce Bullion pellets (9.6 alpha)
- 1 1/4 ounce Northern Brewer pellets (6 7 % alpha)
- 2 ounce Kent Goldings pellets
- 13 lb Fresh Boysenberries
- 4 tsp Gypsum Sierra Nevada yeast
- 1 c. Corn Sugar (priming)
- This makes 6-1/2 to 7 gallons.
- This is based on Papazian's recipe from the Summer 1990 issue of Zymurgy, except which I use more Boysenberries
- (Directions are pretty standard.)
- The Bullion hops and Northern Brewer are used for bittering and are added to the boil.
- The Kent Goldings pellets are used for dry-hopping.
- This had a very strong Boysenberry taste with a slightly coffee/dark malt and hoppy/bitter aftertaste.
- The Boysenberry taste is accompanied by a sort of astringency or possibly acidity which will supposedly soften with age.
- It's still very young for an Imperial stout.
