    American Pale Ale Sacred Summit Pale Ale (AG) [[ Gold Medal and Best In Show ]]

    I decided to keep this grain bill rolling. Bumped the grain % up with a tight crush for BIAB and hit 7.25%. Bow is right, you can't really taste the ABV on this. I used summit, mand bav, jarrylo, and citra, about 3oz of each throughout. It's another one of those IPA's for people who proclaim...

    Spicy Ginger Ale

    I'm a big fan of spicy ginger beer. Maine root and 'Q' brands available in local higher end grocers are great, but expensive ($8+ 4pk 12oz). I tried using some yeast last year to carbonate a batch but no one cared for the flavor. Made some syrup and added it to club soda and that was better...

    I'm BIAB only after moving to all grain. 10 gallon batches with a 230v induction cooker. Pretty easy and I usually end up with a higher efficiency than my recipes call for due to a tight crush. Only issue I have is high gravity stuff, not being able to mash all that grain. I'll do a 5 gallon...

    Do you enjoy Pumpkin Beer?

    Pumpkin=ok for a few weeks. Had a barrel aged rumpkin (avery) at snallygaster in DC and our designated driver said that I really liked it! Pumking is hit or miss each year.

    American Pale Ale Sacred Summit Pale Ale (AG) [[ Gold Medal and Best In Show ]]

    Did another batch with Jarrylo augmenting some of the summit. Had more of a tropical (mango?-ish) citrus flavor. Going to stick with this and maybe try the summit with mandarina bavaria next time through.

    Kickstarter for SS Mash Tun, Kettle and Fermenter

    I received my fermenter last week. Installed the bulkhead and valve. Hit it with pbw, rinse, and sanitized. Seal was good, ten gallons of brown ale in there. Shortly after that a package showed up with the updated bulkhead. I had assumed the updated equipment shipped with the kettle. It's...

    I did a 10 gallon batch, used rye malt. WLP070 Bourbon yeast in a 2 step starter. Almost done at .013, samples taste great.

    Never dump your beer!!! Patience IS a virtue!!! Time heals all things, even beer!

    first started diluting and conditioning my tap water a couple months ago. Used a cheap scale and realized during the mash that the scale was not accurate with measurements that low. I now have a wonderful fall spiced brown with a nasty salt water aftertaste. First batch so bad that I probably...
