I have been working on this beer for a while--trying to make a sweet amber beer with yams. This may be the best effort yet.
8 lbs amber extract
1 lb honey
.5 lbs maple syrup
reduction of 8 yams, boiled and filtered
.5 lbs german
.5 lbs Caraamber
.5 lbs crystal malt 60L
.5 lbs Honey malt
8 oz malto dextrin
8 oz lactos
4 sticks of cinnamon.
(I am guessing at the hops bill.
1 oz willamette--60 minutes
1 oz willamette--10 minutes
1 oz paliscades-2 minutes
pacman yeast
O.G. 1.100
O.T. 73 degrees
Upon racking to secondary, this tasted like a cordial. So I diluted it with 1 gallon of water. I estimnated this brought the original gravity to 1.080
F.G. 1.028 (high because of adjuncts, or destined to ovber carbonate?--well see.)
F.T. 65
Estimated 6.8% ABV
