The recipe was once told to me by the person who created it, but I don't remember all the details. I know that (at least in the beginning), they went out of their way to get BEST MALZ Heidelburg, an extra pale Pilsner-style malt with a little less protein. If I remember right, the grist was 39 bags of that and one bag of Vienna, so 97.5% Pilsner, 2.5% Vienna should get you close (95%/5% might be better at a homebrew scale). If I was told what the hops and the hopping regimen were I don't remember, but hops aren't exactly the focus of that beer. Hallertauer would be my guess, but any noble hop is probably going to be fine. I expect the boil would have been 90 minutes. And I'm almost positive that the yeast was the standard Pilsener lager (WLP 800). Mash-wise, it would probably be pretty standard for the style, but the brewer liked several rests and had the equipment to pull it off. I would guess at minimum there was a protein rest in the 120s, sacch at 150 or so, and then mash out.macisaac_4 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 15, 2018 9:25 pmAnyone have an all grain or even extract Killick Recipe.

Well if you want to cheat and look at the website…LiverDance wrote:Here is what the website says:
This German-style Munich Helles is a light blonde lager featuring 100% German Heidelberg Malt. Subtly hopped, this lager showcases delicate citrus nuances from both the Herkules and Huell Melon hop varietals. A sessionable, quality-crafted, everyday lager.
4.7% Alc./Vol.
16 IBU
3 SRM
And a further correction to my original post is that the yeast is probably Wyeast 2308 Munich Lager (thanks for the reminder LD!).mumblecrunch wrote:Well if you want to cheat and look at the website…LiverDance wrote:Here is what the website says:

I’m positive about the one bag of Vienna. At least at the time (this time last year).
