Brewin's hard out there for a pirate, what with this hook and only one good eye, it's been much trial and arrroror getting this recipe perfected for the pirate day regatta... but I did it. Dark as the sea on a moonless night, and sturdy as a deckhand in a hurricane, this palate-plundering stout will leave you weak in the knees and ready to walk the plank for just one more schooner full.

STEP 1: SANITIZING

Follow the steps outlined in your Mr. Beer Kit Instructions. (You can find a copy of these instructions by visiting our help desk.)

NOTE: BE SURE TO SANITIZE EVERYTHING THAT WILL COME INTO CONTACT WITH YOUR BEER.

STEP 2: BREWING

Brewing beer is the process of combining a starch source (in this case, a malt brewing extract) with yeast. Once combined, the yeast eats the sugars in the malt, producing alcohol and carbon dioxide (CO2). This process is called fermentation.

    1. Remove the yeast packets (not needed for this recipe) from under the lids of the cans of Brewing Extract, then place the unopened cans and LME softpacks in hot tap water.
    2. Using the sanitized measuring cup, pour 4 cups of water into your clean 3-quart or larger pot. Bring water to a boil, then remove from heat.
    3. Open the cans of Brewing Extract and the pouches of LME, pour the contents into the hot mixture. Stir until thoroughly mixed. This mixture of unfermented beer is called wort.
    4. Fill keg with cold tap water to the 4-quart mark on the back.
    5. Pour the wort into the keg, and then bring the volume of the keg to the 8.5-quart mark by adding more cold water. Stir vigorously with the spoon or whisk. 
    6. Sprinkle ONLY the Safale S-04 yeast packet into the keg, and screw on the lid. Do not stir.
    7. Put your keg in a location with a consistent temperature between 59°and 75°F (15-24°C) and out of direct sunlight. Ferment for 7-14 days.
    8. After approximately 24 hours, you will be able to see the fermentation process happening by shining a flashlight into the keg. You'll see the yeast in action in the wort. The liquid will be opaque and milky, you will see bubbles rising in the liquid, and there will be bubbles on the surface.
    9. At the 1 week mark, place the contents of all the pellet hops packets into the hop sack tying them closed, then trim away excess material.
    10. Open the lid of the fermenter and toss in the hop sack, replace lid. You'll leave the hop sack in the wort for the duration of fermentation.

Your fermentation will usually reach its peak in 2 to 5 days (this is also known as “high krausen”). You may see a layer of foam on top of the wort, and sediment will accumulate at the bottom of the fermenter. This is totally normal. Complete fermentation will take approximately 2 weeks.

After high krausen the foam and activity will subside and your batch will appear to be dormant. Your beer is still fermenting. The yeast is still at work slowly finishing the fermentation process.

Step 3: BOTTLING AND CARBONATING

Follow the steps outlined in your Mr. Beer Kit Instructions. (You can find a copy of these instructions by visiting our help desk.)

Rated 5 out of 5 by Picoc57 from OMG! This is a magnificent ale, beautiful color, outstanding head, nice lacing and taste is wonderful. Everyone liked this ale, sophisticated drinkers and novices. Even tho the suggested lagering time is long after a month it was exceptional, I can't wait to try it 4 months from now. I let this ale ferment 17 days, cold crashed it for 2 days, racked and batch primed it, let it carbonate for 2 weeks and then lagered it at 55 degrees for 4 weeks, chilled it for 3 days a 37.5. This ale was crystal clear with a negligible amount of trub in the bottle. I let bottles sit for 10 minutes at room temperature before serving. I will be making this again for a summer BBQ party. I have no idea on ABV, I care little about ABV and brew for color, clarity, head, lacing and taste, but it does pack a punch.
