  It may be too late for this batch, but in the past I've had good luck using honey as priming

  Well, I tasted my first go at a "Pale Stout" today! The recipe was heavy on the Maris Otter,

  I'm looking to make a Green Clover Stout recipe this year (was hoping to do it for St. Pat's

  I've got an idea for a 'green clover stout', a deep dark stout racked over fresh clover and
