Belgian dubbel/oud bruin


Recipe for 10 gallons.  I split this into 2 pails.  One got the standard Belgian yeast, the other Roeselare yeast blend, which will become an Oud Bruin.

Fermentables:
   18# Rarh 2-row malt
     1# Carapils
  1/2# Special B
  1/2# Belgian aromatic malt
     1# Belgian dark candi sugar
     2# sugar
Hops:
  2oz German Tradition (60)
  2oz Hersbrucker (15)
Other:
  1 Whirlfloc tablet (10)

Yeast:
  Wyeast 1214 Belgian Abby ale - Sub White labs 530 Belgian Abby ale
  Wyeast 3763 Roselare blend - used in 1/2 the wort for an old bruin.
 
Notes:
10/28/12 - Starter of WYeasty Abbey Yeaast
10/31/12 - Belgian starter failed!
10/31/12 - New starter w/ WLP 530 Abbey Ale
11/1/12 - Brew 10g Belgian double (1/2 goes to oud bruin)   OG=1.065
11/24/12 - Secondary  SG=1.011
Hazy, amber.  Slight yeasty. not much Belgian character.  A little sweet but not bad.
