Bam Biere Recipe

tcmonk, If you have fermenter space why not use it as a primary and at secondary like brewin hardon suggests- the beer won't suck.

I brewed my version of this yesterday. I've had a few sour beers, but never anything from Jolly Pumpkin, so I'm curious how this will turn out.

It will probably suck, so when its done send me the final product....

It will have to be disposed of properly. . .

I kegged my attempt today. Did I clone it? Don't know. I can't get it here. I've never had it. So yes. I cloned it! It's the cloniest clone (as Brewcaster J would say) of it I have ever had.

Dirk-

Any noticeable sourness or was it just more brett enhanced? The last Bam I had was mildly funky/fruity with a nice hoppiness in the aroma and flavor dept. and just a bit of sourness as it washed across the back of my tongue.

There was a mild tartness. It smells barnyard, but the flavor was funky/fruity. I hope I can wait until it's carbonated.

I think this beer was great, it didn't last long! I never picked up any sourness. More of a mild brett bite and great floral in the aroma as the beer aged. Will brew this again, maybe a little more full bodied and left longer on the brett and oak.
