    Pumpkin Ale tastes tart...Just curious what happened

    I made my first all-grain pumpkin ale a little over 2 weeks ago. When I tried it the other day it was tart at the finish. Its fully fermented down with no signs of infection. I used WLP005 british ale yeast, because I liked the maltyness that came through with my porter and thought it would...

    My First IPA: Please Critique

    Thoughts? I've been making all grains for over a year now and I can't stop. The SWMBO doesn't really like IPA's but loves Stouts, wheats, Belgians. I now have a chocolate stout (her V-day present), a classic lager, and a 3 day weekend coming up. With 2 empty carboys that says its brewing...
