Minutes per gallon.... I read that as GPM and had the same reaction as BM. |

I've never had the original Fire Rock, but it sounded good and this one has since become a staple in my little operation. Awesome example of an APA, thanks BM!

Ahoy hoy,
I have been planning on brewing this beer solely based on this thread. Until last night. As I walked through the Safeway beer store, there it was. The real thing. 9.95 a sixer. I grabbed one and took it home. The wife got one of them. I got the other 5. The bomb. The bomb. How tasty. Smooth and just drinkable. I was guzzling it. 
It was so good. First store bought in a month or so. Im just about to free up a couple carboys, but this might end up being a 10 galloner going in the fermenator. mmm mmm good.....

I'd suggest nothing less than 10-gallons for someone so far north.

BM, is this some thing that would be drinkable in 4 weeks five days? I am a little pushed for time but this recipe looks great.

Ahoy hoy,
well I just brewed up a 10 gallonish batch. The ferminator is chugging nicely. I cannot wait to see how this one turns out! mmm mmm good....

When I've made it the taste wasn't quite there until about 7-8 weeks total, so I wouldn't count on it for that time frame. A hefeweizen is the best bet for 4-5 weeks IMO.

That was my experience too, after about 8 weeks it was pretty darn close. I had bottled a few as well and at about 6 months it was spot on.

Having planted a cascade hop rhizome a few weeks ago, I've been fantasizing about which beer I'm going to brew this fall using my harvested hops. I'm pretty much settled on this recipe, it sounds excellent.
