Up next is my take on a Dunkel Bock. Dunkel in German means Dark, so it'll be a Dark Bock for us Americans..
Bock's are very simple by following the German purity law. Where beer must contain only 4 ingredients, barley, water, hops & yeast. Germans take their beer very seriously. The ingredients of what goes into a German beer is governed by law.
Ingredients: (5 gallon batch)
6 lbs Munich dry malt extract
1 lb Pillsen Light dry malt extract
1/2 Lb Chocolate Malt
1/2 oz Hallertauer hops
1 package Saflager 34/70
6 gallons water.
This Dunkel Bock should have a malty Munich sweet forground taste that finishes with a just a hint of chocolate toffee flavor. It will be very low in bitterness to allow the malty sweetness to shine though. That's the plan anyways... I'll work on the label later.
Plan is to brew this Saturday Dec 28.
