MEXICAN CERVEZA
A typical South of the Border style pale and lightly flavoured summer quaffer. Definitely one to have after watching someone else mow the lawn. Also you may want to add a slice of lemon or lime to the neck of the bottle for a little extra bite.
2.5Kg Light Dried Malt
10g Golden Cluster Hop Pellets @ 5 mins
15g Hersbrucker Hop Pellets @ 45 mins
15g Hersbrucker Hop Pellets @ Steeping
Saflager Beer Yeast
Add 500g of malt to 5 - 10L of water and bring to the boil
After 5 minutes of boiling add the Golden Cluster hops and continue to boil.
After a further 40 minutes add the first 15g of Hersbrucker and continue to boil for a further 15 minutes.
At the end of the boiling time remove from the heat and steep the last 15g of Hersbrucker Hops and steep for 5 mins.
Cool the liquid down to fermentation temperature as quickly possible and syphon into your fermenter. Add the yeast.
Place into a fridge and cool to 10- 15°C and ferment to a final gravity of about 1005-1010, rack off the clear beer to another fermenter and allow to lager for at least 1 month @ 10-15°C before bottling.
Allow to mature for at least 2 months before sampling.
