tasting the Asacca APA and go through the recipe.
This is a beer mail from Danny Wiik.
Danny's daughter . 3 year-old daughter
does the drawings for the labels so awsome start there Danny. I did have glance at the recipe.
We're gonna go
through that as well and it was a bit
strange for an American pale ale to.
so we're gonna get this one into a glass
and taste it I will share my experience
of beer and then we're gonna run through
the recipe and really like dissect this
beer. So hang in there guys.
let's get this beer into a gloss and
yeah if you like this opener I do have a
link to it down in the description box
also for the glass. I do get a lot of
questions about stuff I use so I did
like a long list with stuff I
usually  use for
beer and brewing and if it's on that
list
it's approved by the doctor so do check
it out. It is quite a lot of stuff to go
through but if you need anything
check it out and you know it's stuff I
use like if I don't like it I don't link
to it okay. So have a look at the label
made by Danny's daughter
awesome the Azacca APA American pale
[The Doctor read Swedish]
It was some Swedish for you. Fresh and
fruity pale ale brewed with Swedish Pale Ale
malt and Azacca hopes drink fresh 33 centiliters of pleasure. When I was
talking to Grayham hapless ginger brew
he didn't know wasn't it was and
centiliters is 10 milliliters so you
have milliliters centiliters deciliters
liters so one liter is 10 deciliters or
100 centiliters or thousand milliliters
okay.
That's some Metric for you guys.  okay so
let's get this one into glass. label out!
this is bottle fermented so I'm gonna
leave it there. oh it's quite carb!
so we have a good-looking beer, three
finger head with different sized bubbles
like foam soapy bubbles yes I've
been looking at Brad Allison's videos
and he always says soap and this like
this like this foam soaps and yeah this
is like that
so 3 finger head. we have orange beer
like a light orange to dark yellow. it is
lighter than you see it there it's
almost read on camera I think don't have
a flashlight on me I should have sorry
but it's hazy very inviting good looking
beer so let's give it a nose.
Thanks Danny for sending me the beer if anyone
else wants to send beer you found my contact
information down in the description box
and guys don't forget to give this video
a thumbs up it really goes a long way
okay so I can't really like pick up any
hop in it when I think about an
American pale ale it should be like
hoppy and yes I did lookat the recipe
so but bear with me
it's a very thick head so I
dont get much from it.
it ain't like so much of the nose
actually. okay so I'm gonna dive in
because I didn't pick up much. cheers
guys and thanks Danny
please send more beer. I have already
reviewed the Ace IPA by Danny and I also
have an IMP Stout from him.  But
today it's all about the Azacca APA.
Cheers!
I do get some hops on the taste it's a
little bit boozy, it shouldn't be.
it's it's boozy american pale ale.
shouldn't be boozy. We have some malt
and some sweetness.
and yes it's boozy
bear with me
there is a small hint of like higher
alcohols. some of the fusel
alcohols. it's just a small hint.
Its a quite nice beer but it is a bit boozy
so let's go through the recipe on this brew,
okay so the Azacca
APA.  23 litre in the bucket it was brewed
for nearly like three months ago For the malts he
used only pale malt so this is a
single malt and singing hop beer.
A SMASH beer. He used 5.3 kilos malt.  Mashed at 65
degrees for 90 minutes did a mash out at
78 degrees and sparged at 79
degrees Celsius that is. And for hops he
used 80 grams 80 grams would be like
just under three ounces
he used 80grams of Azacca at 40 minutes
and this was fermentedt with WLP
O60 white labs O60. that is an
American ale blend
it's like three different
strains combined. Ive never brewed with
that I should have
maybe made astart from that. I didn't! don't
want do now cuz yeah I'm like
anal with the stuff so I would like to
have been prepared.
This was fermented at 18 degrees
Celsius for five days and then he bumped up
temperature up to 21 degrees. this hasdan
OG of 1056 and FG of 1011
okay so all of you haven't seen the
other video I'll put a card up to the
Ace IPA also brewed by Danny
but I think the ace IPA was a better
beer than this one there's some
fermentation issues even if they are
small here and I think you should have
used more late hops some maybe dry
hopped. you don't need to dry hop an
American pale ale of course.  but should
have put maybe some hops a flameout.
something like that to give it some more
aroma. it ain't a bad beer but it ain't
as good as the other one so guys I guess
that's it. thanks Danny for sending me
