  Looks good to me. I love hoppy session beers. Did you do a full or partial boil?Also, Australia

  Just bottled up a pale ale over the weekend. I have brewed this recipe before with Wlp 001 and

  hops at fla...

  This one isn't strange but I live in the north east. I want REAL Southern BBQ! I hear it will

  I got a new low. 21 on an American pale ale. It was infected but I didn't realize it til after

  roof!! Best ye...
