BTW... I had a pretty disurbing review of batch #2 that I brewed from a co-worker today...
I gave him 2 bottles to sample last Friday and he tried one Friday. Monday morning he told me that he drank the first bottle Friday evening and thought it was among the best beers he has ever tried.... He kept going on and on about "mouth feel" and "Crisp" and stuff like that... and how he wished he had more...
Then, yesterday morning, out of the blue he told me... AND I QUOTE.... "If I had a pu77y, I'd be giving you some..."
At first I had NO idea what he was talking about... Then it hit me...
He drank the 2nd bottle of my version of Ed Worts Haus Ale.
Well, are we keeping a running total? I've made 15 gallons of it.

I've made one 5 gallon batch...so far! I have high hopes, and reallly my only change to the original recipe was using Wyeast 1056. I'm going to bottle it Sunday night if my gravity reading checks out, or I might wait until next weekend.
I really tend to like the hoppy pale brews, and this recipe just fits the bill. If it turns out well I'll be brewing it a lot more. Thanks Ed!
