this IP is be slightly on the Northern Brewer Dead Ringer recipe. it contains lots of Centennial hops, plus a fair amount of Cascade to finish things up.
what makes this beer unique is the addition of rhubarb juice in the boil process.
I made it three years ago that was a real hit. so here's a 10 gallon batch this time. |

I cut 32 oz of fresh rhubarb into small pieces, and froze them the night before brew day. I thought about putting these in the mash, but instead, I thought them crushed him and squeeze this much juice is I could out of the rhubarb. I was only able to get about 12 ounces of juice, so I put the remainder in a fine mesh bag, and hung it in the boil kettle for the last 15 minutes. I added the juice at the same time. I plan to collect another 12 to 16 ounces of rhubarb juice, and add it to the secondary (6 to 8 ounces in each).
