How to Brew A Hoppy Lager Beer

In this brewing video, we show you how to make a hoppy lager using Nelson Sauvin hops. This is a low abv light lager that we're making to take to a friend's wedding. We're brewing it in honor of their two old cats that are known to pee everywhere, so we're calling this a Cat Piss Wedding Lager. However, catty is also a beer term that can describe good and bad flavors. We're obviously going for a good catty flavor that is similar to blackcurrant juice. This beer is going to get its light, easy-drinking, and dry body from a grain bill consisting of pale malt, acid malt, flaked corn and flaked rice. We mash these at a lower temperature than usual in order to extract more fermentable sugars from them. We recommend you follow along with this tutorial, brew this recipe at home, and take it to the pool on a hot summer day, share it with friends at a cookout, or take it to a game day tailgate. Check out the resources below for a full recipe, brewing equipment, and an article about what makes Nelson Sauvin hops special.

Idk what's the problem about low ABV beers. That's all I brew. You Enjoy more that way.

Love Lower abv beer and hats, Crack on! haters hate

[@toomanycastles4923]

Personally I pronounce it Sauvin, rather than Sauvin but I don't think anyone's judging you.

[@danielrowe2174]

On a hot day you'll want a low abv and personally I don't care about the abv. I care more about flavor from a great product that o can make at Home. That Lager looks refreshing.

Do a BIG Russian Imperial Stout with a reiterated mash. It's what your followers want.

[@SeanehKelleh]

why use expensive hops at 60 mins when all you're getting from them in bitterness? why not just use magnum or warrior or something? Genuine question btw.

[@briansbrews4688]

I, for one, enjoy sessionable beers. You can drink two and not be sloshed. Also, I enjoy hats, but not cats. Allergies, you see.

any chance of an impy stout?

[@Magnumscoffeefreek]

I enjoy making a lower abv beer.

Rarely comment but got to say I really enjoy your videos, like the balance of banter and brewing. Wish I had the money to order one of your brewing systems, really like the simplicity of it and the grain basket

"So I'm just gonna add a little lactic acid. I like to do the scientific approach...

[@TotallyAestheticGames]

I would love to see a beer brewed with the WLP862 Cry Havoc strain from you guys. Thats what I use in my flagship beer, Dwarven Gold which is like a Kötbussser. I love these brewing videos keep up the great work!

[@tonesmith909]

Love the vids guys, love my PID controller also. Thanks

[@jacobsecret1425]

More Ross and more hats 😀. Awesomeness

[@srtintheburgh]

Keep making those Lagerbiers!

[@tyrepair]

I love double IPAs and Russian imperial stouts as much as the next guy, but there's something about a crisp, refreshing lager!

[@luciancorneev2822]

Easy on the hops, man!

[@ModernGameChangers]

If you want to try the room temp lager fermentation you can try using White Lab's Cry Havock strain. I have done several lagers this way and they all turn out great. The fermentation temp is around the low 60s if I remember right and they have all turned out great. I used the brulosophy guy's experiments to guide me on how to properly modify the fermentation time.
