as a avid homebrewer, hop farmer, and recreational pot grower i have found a way to combine all three of my passions into one amazing dream in a bottle. the wonderful thing about making a cannabis ale is that you can brew any style beer you like and turn it into a beer that gets you both stoned and drunk. i have friends with serious stomach problems that swear my hopped up cannabis ales are the best thing for their belly(in moderation of coarse)
You see hops like cannabis have medicinal properties that sooth belly aches, aid in digestion, and even help allieviate anxiety. this is why i prefer to do my cannabis ales with loads of hops, and lots of alcohol to help dissolve the THC into the wort(fermenting beer)
don't be intimidated and think that theres no way you could ever afford or figure out how to brew your own beer. i will break this down so that any person can create a cannabis ale of their very own. there are a few key factors that you need to understand when making a cannabis ale.
1) create a high alcohol recipe. i like barley wines, imperial i.p.a., stouts, even pale ales. anything that will end up being higher than 6.5%abv.
2) add your cannabis after primary fermentation has ended.(majority of sugars turned to alcohol)
those are just the basics of a cannabis ale. true strenghth is up to you and personally i like mine to be around10% with an ounce and a half of bomb.
RECIPE: all extract-4lbs pale liquid malt extract, 4lbs extra light dry malt extract, 1/2 lbs caramel 20 l crushed malted barley, 1oz of 10%alpha acid hops or higher for 60 mins, 1oz of 6.5-7%alpha acid for 30 mins, 1oz of same for 15 mins, 1oz of fav. hops for dry hopping, american yeast, and you can either use a shit ton of trimmins or an ounce or above of fine cannabis. add cannabis during secondary fermentation.
All grain recipe: 10lbs belgian pale malt, 1lbs caramel 20l,1/2lbs belgian biscuit, and same hops and yeast. add cannabis during secondary ferm.
MR. BEER KITS- this one is for everyone who doesn't know anything about brewing but are interested. go get a mr. beer kit, follow directions, and add cannabis one week before you bottle. there you have it. trust me with a little effort this can really be this easy. and remember the first and for most rule to brewing beer. IT's 90% SANITATION, 5% ART, AND 5% LUCK(not really the #1 rule to brewing, but it is key) cheers abd good luck . foolsgold.:beer
