Recipe Type: Extract with Grains
Your Turn Maibock
MEMBERS ONLYThis recipe was submitted by Rick Shultz. It is the homebrew recipe that inspired Lakefront Brewery’s My Turn Series “Chris.”
Welsh Archer’s Bitter Ale
MEMBERS ONLYWe want to use crystal malt to give it some extra flavor and body, and more importantly to make it copper colored rather than pale gold in hue. Perfect in a bitter.
Pistachio Pale Ale
MEMBERS ONLYWhat’s better than drinking beer and eating pistachios? Smashing them together (of course) and making citrusy pale ale using Palisade hops with a smoky pistachio kick.
Sunflower Seed Dark Hefeweizen
MEMBERS ONLYThis recipe takes advantage of the head retention power of wheat to blend in some flavors of toasted sunflower seeds. Sunflower seeds are very oily, so toasting the seeds to get a large amount of the oils removed is essential.
Pecan Doppelbock
MEMBERS ONLYI chose a doppelbock because of its rich, full-bodied, caramel malty flavor, blanketed light hop aroma with a light ruby-hazed color. This style with the pecan addition just screams Thanksgiving to me.
Jamil’s American Barleywine
MEMBERS ONLYThe balance of bittering versus malt sweetness should always be toward the bitter, but expect the beer to become more and more balanced as the beer ages and the bittering drops out.
Poe’s Boston Bitter
MEMBERS ONLY“Fill with mingled cream and amber, I will drain that glass again. Such hilarious visions clamber through the chambers of my brain. Quaintest thoughts – queerest fancies, come to life and fade away: What care I how time advances? I am drinking ale today.”
– Edgar Allan Poe

Stone Brewing Co.’s Pataskala Red X IPA clone
MEMBERS ONLYThe key to replicating a beer of this nature is to use the freshest hops possible and, as always with hop-forward beers, minimizing oxygen uptake during dry-hopping, transferring, and packaging processes.
