Eric Martin, of the Kansas City Bier Meisters, brewed this winning recipe for the group’s scale-up portion of their annual homebrew competition. Dampfbier is a medium-bodied German ale made with 100% barley malt, and then fermented with the same yeast strain as our Hefeweizen. Adjustments to the fermentation process produce less of the typical banana flavor, and give this beer a hint of spice that is complemented by a touch of melon from the late addition of Hallertau Melon hops.
