I would like to try and clone the Bavarian dark lager produced by Uli Bennewitz at his Weeping Radish Brewery in North Carolina. Not interested in lagering but figure someone has come up with a pretty good home brewing recipe. Any ideas?
Probably hard to find a clone of a regional brew. You might just ask to talk to the brewer and see what he based his recipe on. Micro brewers often started as homebrewers and are happy to talk beer.
I’ve even asked for and got free yeast. I just had to plan ahead and bring in a sanitized jar. I got a quart of some very active yeast!
I currently have a cream ale cranking away. That’ll be kegged here in a week or so for a chili cook off. Then an Anchor Steam clone will be ready to keg a couple of weeks after that.
