  I actually bought that book a few months back mostly for the section on Gumballhead. That

  discussion about it i...

  HOLY COW THIS RECIPE IS FREAKING AWESOME. I just drank my first bottle of it. It has been
  exactly a month ago since I brewed this beer, so talk about being fresh. I only did a 2-week
  fermentation, 11-...

  I have been to and happily used two different BOPs here in Chicago. However, sadly niether one

  I just sampled my batch after it had been fermenting for 5 days (it has gone down from 1.100 to
  1.040) and WOW was I already impressed. This is going to be a good batch, probably one of my

  The first thing that came to my mind when looking at the recipe is that your gonna want more
  IBU's. I would add an extra ounce of Tomahawk IMO.EDIT: Didn't see all of the roasted malt your
