My wife and I were in Granby CO a few months ago. A brewpub there had a Norwegian Farmhouse ale that was quite good, malty and about 7% abv. I have been looking for Norwegian beer recipes but can only find ones that are pilsner style. Anyone have a good recipe for me? I've got juniper and Norwegian yeast ready to go. Thanks!!
I believe you might want to look up some Kornol recipes, that's one of the traditional styles they brew there. I believe it's a blend of pale malts only, and with heavy juniper in the mash. I think it's also traditionally a raw ale, not boiled. Let the yeast and the juniper give off all the expression.
Correct, Kornøl is a raw ale.
Just be sure you have the right kind of Juniper, the most common type found in the US is not the same as what's used in scandinavia and may be poisonous
I hear they use just regular bread yeast in these beers too.
I bet this blokes writen about it on his kviek register
