Coney Island Human Block Head

[CADETS3]

Looking for some help in putting together a recipe for this brew. I would love to make this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Shmaltz brewing posts their recipes online in an excel spreadsheet. If you poke around, you may find one for Human Blockhead (Coney Island is owned by Shmaltz, at least they used to be owned by them). The recipes are very detailed for the Shmaltz beers.

Wow! That'd be nice if I could find it. I looked but I can't find it anywhere on their site.

If you happen to put one together that works out could you please post it? I have a buddy for whom this beer is his "Unicorn". Thanks

You might try emailing them; the owner of Shmaltz is very open with his recipes. Coney Island may have been sold, though.

http://blog.homebrewbeer.net/2010/03/beer-review-coney-island-human.htmlI found this blog review of the beer; it has some details from Shmaltz on the recipe.

Pound for pound, Coney Island Human Blockhead(TM) is a finely crafted professional. 8 specialty malts of barley, wheat, rye, and oats create an enormously developed body. Juggling 6 hop varieties from European Noble roots to American Pacific Northwest new school flavors balances this weighty task. Traditional proprietary Lager yeast shines true elegance on this innovative recipe for a complex demonstration of pure enjoyment. 10% alcohol nails it home.

Good luck cloning that, lol. There are only 8 malts and 6 hops.

Hmmm, interesting, that's going to be a booger!
