Welcome to MR.BEER®

Pardi Gras

With the rebirth of New Orleans, it is only fitting that a new and mighty beer be created in honor of the Big Easy’s indomitable spirit. Although drunk cold, this is a warm, dark comfortable beer reminiscent of a lively French Quarter Mardi Gras.

RECIPE INCLUDES:
1 Can West Coast Pale Ale
1 Can Octoberfest Vienna Lager
1 Can Mellow Amber UME
2 Packets Dry Brewing Yeast (under lid of beer mix)
1 Packet Saaz Pellet Hops
1 Packet Argentine Cascade Pellet Hops
2 Muslin Hop Sacks
1 Packet One-Step™ Sanitizing Cleanser

Step 1: Sanitizing
Follow the steps outlined in your MR.BEER® BEER KIT INSTRUCTIONS. (You can find a copy of these instructions to download by clicking on the "Kits" tab of the website.)

NOTE: BE SURE TO SANITIZE YOUR HOP SACK ALONG WITH ALL YOUR OTHER EQUIPMENT.

Step 2: Brewing
2.1. Fill keg with cold water to the 4-quart mark on the back.

2.2. Remove yeast packet from under lid of both beer mixes, then place unopened cans of mix and UME in hot water to make the liquid easier to pour.

2.3. Place 1 packet (1/2 oz.) of Saaz pellet hops into one hop sack tying it closed, then trim away excess material. Repeat using 1 packet (1/2 oz.) of Argentine Cascade hops into the second hop sack.

2.4. Using the sanitized measuring cup, place 4 cups of water into a clean 3-quart pot and bring to a boil, then remove from heat.

2.5. Stir beer mix and UME into this water. This mixture is called the wort.

NOTE: HOPS MAY APPEAR AS GREEN LEAF PARTICLES AND WILL NOT DISSOLVE. KEEP HOPS IN FERMENTER THE ENTIRE FERMENTATION PERIOD.

2.6. Pour wort into keg. Bring the volume of the keg to the 8.5-quart mark by adding more cold water. Add both hops (in hop sacks), stir vigorously to mix well.

2.7. Sprinkle yeast into keg and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Stir vigorously again, then screw on lid.

2.8. Ferment by placing the keg out of direct sunlight and in a location with a consistent temperature. Allow beer to FERMENT A MINIMUM OF TWO WEEKS at room temperature (between 68°-76°F).

Step 3: Bottling & Carbonating
Follow the steps outlined in your MR.BEER® BEER KIT INSTRUCTIONS.

TIP: FOR BEST RESULTS ALLOW TO LAGER FOR AT LEAST 2 MONTHS.
