I like this idea. I also wouldn't have thought of using the peated malt in an IPA, but it could be good. Anyone else actually tasted a beer other than a Scottish or Scotch ale that contained peat...

That's a great idea--Maybe hook up a blowoff tube so that the co2 bubbles through my full bucket of Star San to maybe clear up the full batch of it? I'm not sure if the co2 would neutralize the Star...

Clarifying Star San

The last time I mixed up a batch of Star San, I was out of distilled water. As a result, I used my well water and it immediately turned cloudy. As usual, I filled my airlock with Star San, which,...

Ultra Hops

Hops Direct has a really good price on Ultra Hops (among others) as part of its Hops Yard Sale. I have never used them, but they appear to be a noble-type hop. I found a few older threads...

Just cracked one. Not the best presentation, as it was a 12 oz. bottle poured into a 16 oz. glass, but you get the idea.

Just cracked the first bottle last night. My wife (who is the big White Christmas fan) said it was excellent and probably the closest to the real thing I had ever come with a clone.

I pulled a sample of this last night after 10 days in the primary. Gravity right now is 1.015, down from an OG of 1.059. Color and taste seem pretty close to the real thing. I will likely pull...

Tramp Stamp is an awesome beer, I had it when Clown Shoes did a tap takeover at one of the brewpubs near me. I think I will give this a shot.
