  • We partnered with local Dark artist Rob Czar from the @RobCzar CZcams Channel to brew the world's darkest beer. This beer was brewed with an absurd amount of dark malt (midnight wheat, chocolate wheat malt, chocolate malt, black malt, carafa iii, and black patent).

      One time my brother and I brewed a beer and he put it in "party pigs" (not sure if that is still a brewing thing), basically pressurized plastic vessels to dispense the beer, and they came with these cradles with nylon handles and as he came down the steps to the basement with the party pig of beer, he slowed down but the party pig's momentum kept it going, and it fell 10 feet, hit the concrete floor, punctured, and created this laser beam of pressurized beer that was rotating/spinning around spraying beer on the floor, walls, ceiling, everywhere. That also is much worse than the beer spill in this video.

    The key to that kind of sanitation is so dip the cans so they are fully immersed then drain the solution and let the cans air dry. They time required for sir drying is the time is takes to sanitize the cans. It you since the sand in sterile water you have unsanitized cans. If you dry the cans in warm air you have unsanitized cans.
    Restaurants are notorious for speeding up the “sanitation” of dishes and glass wear after washing by rinsing the dishes after “sanitizing” then drying. Why? Because air-drying the sanitizer solution takes time. But the air-drying is when the sanitization takes place.

    What's the actual estimated color (SRM) rating of the beer?
    Plugging the recipe into Beersmith around 84 SRM (assuming the CaraMunich is CaraMunich III)? That IS pretty bananas dark!
    Should be VERY low enzyme content with that grist.
    Guinness is made with 10% Roast Barley (20% Flaked Barley, 70% Pale malt); 20% isn't super extreme, depending upon what dark malts are included...
    This makes me want to add 20 oz of Weyermann Sinamar to a simple Pilsner+Munich beer blend just to clear 100 SRM.... Pretty fun thing to do, honestly, guys!

    The darkest beer I ever had was by Little Creatures, they did a winter small batch about 10 years ago, called Dreadnaught. Man it was like honey... it poured like honey, you couldn't see any light through it, they had to recall all the bottles because they were exploding in the bottle shops. After this everyone demanded that they bring the Dreadnaught back, so they did... but it was horrific. Different conditions and ingredients I guess.
