Alder Smoked Malt and Juniper
« on: August 22, 2015, 09:11:30 PM »
I'm trying to clone a Norwegian Farmhouse I tried in Portland. I emailed them and they provided me with a list of the ingredients but I'm having trouble finding some of them. Does anyone have or know where I can find Alder Smoked Malt and Juniper Boughs? I think I saw juniper berries in bulk barn but I have no clue where to find the boughs. I can find Alder Smoked Malt from Austin Brewing Supplies but its hardly worth paying all the shipping for only a little bit of it.

My backup plan is to just use the berries and beechwood smoked malt, but if I can keep it as authentic as possible I would like to.

You could always smoke your own with alder wood and find a juniper tree and cut of a few boughs yourself.

Anyone with a good eye for things green feel like taking a trip out one day to collect some juniper?

I'd say @Cuba would be the club forestry expert...  :cheers:

If Juniper is the same normal red cedar, I'm pretty sure I have a pile of them growing on my lot.. Feel free to stop in.
Give a man a beer and he'll waste an hour, teach him how to brew beer and he'll waste a lifetime.

I think this is what I'm looking for? Do yours have the berries/cones?
