- On a cross-country trip in July 2009 I happened to visit the Sierra Nevada brewery because my travelling companion was visiting college friends in Chico. I was so excited about it that I insisted we detour through Fort Collins, CO on the way home so I could also tour the New Belgium brewery since I loved their beers and can no longer get them since I moved to Cincinnati. After that I was irretrievably hooked on homebrewing and have piously funneled every last scrap of my meager disposable income right into my carboy. Cheers.

Thanks for the input. I agree about late hop additions and was wondering that myself, but I
held back since I wasn't sure how much of that the relatively weak malt bill could stand up to.
I am debatin...Posted in thread: Critique this Partial Mash Simarillo IPA on 12-06-2011 at 12:06 AM
I have a ton of Simcoe and Amarillo in the freezer and I want to make a tasty IPA that's not
too heavy. I love super hoppy IPA's but it's nice to have something that's a bit more
session-able for your...Posted in thread: Centennial Blonde (Simple 4% All Grain, 5 & 10 Gall) on 10-07-2010 at 05:47 PM
Has anyone tried this recipe with Kolsch yeast? I was originally planning to do a Kolsch so I
ordered the Wyeast version but then I came across this recipe and decided to do the blonde
instead since i...-

Have you brewed this yet? I brewed a Ranger-inspired brew yesterday. I tweaked the grain bill a
bit to be more interesting to my tastes but kept the hops, IBU, ABV and estimated color in line
with the...Posted in thread: Help with Ranger IPA-inspired Recipe on 10-03-2010 at 03:36 PM
Thanks, Xiang! I took your advice and tweaked the hop schedule. I also decided to add 1/2 lb of
dextrine malt at the last minute. This is what I ended up brewing. Smelled amazing! This is my
first AG ...Posted in thread: Help with Ranger IPA-inspired Recipe on 10-01-2010 at 02:35 AM
I'm brewing this Saturday and thought I'd better throw the recipe I came up with out to you
guys who actually know what you're doing. My brewing experience has yet to catch up with my
brewing obsessio...Posted in thread: Heavily Researched Fat Tire Clone Grain Bill/hop Schedule what yeast? on 08-05-2010 at 07:17 PM
Looks great! I can't wait to brew these beers. At what temp did you ferment the Fat Tire clone?
Would it be the same temp for the brown bastard?Posted in thread: Belhaven Scottish Stout clone? on 07-02-2010 at 06:48 PM
I also LOVE that beer and was blown away when I first tried it on tap. I've never seen it in
bottles and only know of one place that has it on tap here in Cincinnati. I contacted the
brewery and this ...
