stumbled on this from the moa brewery site.
gotta get me a recipe :icon_drunk: :lol:
any clues to an all grain recipe?
 
I reckon sweet stouts and stuff like that are the best breakfast beers.

Even a Guinness with a bacon and egg breakfast can't be topped.

I agree. I find that my taste buds are way more sensitive in the morning, and beer (stouts especially) tastes so much better. Weibier is also a traditional breakfast beer, and in summer it hits the right spot. :chug:
 
I've just been having the same conversation with a mate; to design a great breakfast beer. I was thinking a mix of citrus and black current hops in an ale. Other ideas floated were a coffee style stout. Hmm decisions, decisions.

SWMBO enjoys a breakfast beer, so this will be the basis of my new recipe.

Does anyone have a breakfast beer that is tried and tested?

Mango Hefeweisen :icon_drool2:
 
I was investigating this just this morning, I found 7 commercially available breakfast beers
 
a wit bier is a good place to start I think, Never brewed one so dunno where to start lol I also dont like to drink in the morning and dont drink to much wit bier but it would be a beer I would start on.
 
Many years ago I made a smoked Porter that was just a bit too smokie :p Anyway I called it a Breakfast beer and the boys polished it off after our night shift with eggs and bacon. It was really popular but that may have been the fact we finished the whole keg :beer:
 
That beer in the OP is too clear, at breakfast time I need yeast in suspension as my heads needs some springs.

But yeah mango Heffe, should pump out a batch of that!
 
I think a Dark Mild is a great breakfast beer. Either that or a nice stout!

Cheers
 
On xmas day we had a pint of wheat bear, some wheat beer pancakes with bananas caramelised in wheat beer and golden syrup. :icon_drool2: . If you dont use water in your recipe for pancakes just swap out half the milk for beer or all the water for beer.

Hrm mango Heffe eh? Sounds bloody interesting while I'm staring at this tray of mangoes sitting here.... Have a recipe that works?
 
My vote for a great brunch beer goes to a belgian dubbel or quad :icon_drool2:

The beer is bottle conditioned, so there is plenty of yeast if you feel like it.

Am yet to try the bottle I brought home from a recent NZ trip.

There is a fruit wheat beer in Brewing classic styles that he mixes with apricots
Size-26.5L
2.54kg ale malt
2.54 kg wheat malt
0.227kg Crystal 15L

Apricot Puree 1.36kg

Willamette hops to 18 IBU 60min addition only no late hops

OG. 1.052
FG. 1.013
yeast-wyest 1010 or US05 or WLP 320

Mash @ 68deg 90min boil to help prevent DMS

Mango would probably be the same amount as apricot. He recommends using puree because you dont have to sanitise it and it tastes better than flavouring. Fresh fruit is harder to sanitise and if boiled will cause pectin haze and have a cooked fruit flavour.

EDIT: Rack beer onto fruit in secondary, the longer the fruit is on the beer the stronger the flavour. I might try this recipe with passionfruit
 
I rented a motorcycle in Munich one year for a ride around the alps and as I got off the train at 7am in the morning I past a little coffee/newspaper stand that sold beer!

Standing at a little table thingy was a bloke in a suit & bowler hat reading the news paper drinking a 700ml can of Spaten Optimator for breakfast!

I told my wife this is where I wanted to live, just pass on the bowler hat.
