LichtenhÁjnÁ - Lichtenhainer - HopLine - 21L - NO YEAST

Dávid Szabó and Dávid Prohászka home brewers' gold medal winning Lichtenheiner recipe. They won first place in their category at the 10th anniversary Home Brewers Competition. "Lichtenhainer is a low-alcohol, smoky, sour wheat beer. It reminded me most of a smoky Berliner Weisse with a more moderate acidity."

In the original recipe, the Davids didn't use Quaker yeast, but a Lallemand Sour pitch bacterial culture. After brewing, the wort was boiled for 10 minutes without hops and then acidified with them, first at 40-42 °C for ~24-36 hours. Afterwards, it was boiled again, now for the usual 60 minutes, but this time with 10 IBU of 0 minute bittering hops. Then, after cooling, the beer was inoculated with Fermentis K-97 (or Lalbrew Köln) and fermented. 18°C - 3 days, then 20°C - 5 days

With the guys' permission, we modified the recipe and added Hornindal kveik yeast. This ferments esterily and also acidifies the beer, making the recipe much more beginner friendly.
