    Adding Sour Cherries to Sour Beer

    I brewed up 5 gallons of the golden sour recipe from the Rare Barrel yesterday. I pitched WLP 655 and I am a bit surprised to see fermentation take off already. My plan is to let it get nice and sour and then rack it on to a mess of Nanking cherries that are in my freezer. My questions...

    What are you waiting for?

    What styles of beer have you been meaning to brew, but haven't gotten around to yet? I'm curious to see what others think.

    Moldy beer

    Here's the story - I had a batch of California Common which I was fermenting in a bucket in a closet. I left it alone for about a month, and then took the lid off to check gravity a few days ago. Tonight, I opened it to check gravity again and noticed mold along the top of the krausen line...

    Greetings from Calgary

    Hi everyone - I have recently taken up brewing for the first time since university (nearly 20 years ago). My experiments in school were never very good - I realize now that it was because possibly due to sanitation, and mostly due to pounding the 'finished' product about 2 days after it was...
