    Seattle area Breweries

    Brouwers sounds interesting.. I have been noticing a trend as I research the local tap lists in brewpubs.. Many have a very low percentage of local WA beer on tap, or is it just me? I did a lot of research yesterday on brewpubs and noticed a lot of beers they have on tap are from here...

    Seattle area Breweries

    Hi guys, I have found an amazing map of all the Seattle breweries but I wanted some opinions on more up to date hot spots. I am visiting Seattle and surrounding area for about a week and have been simply overwhelmed by the number of breweries in the area. We usually prefer good IPAs and...

    Smash IPA is carbonation killing hop flavors

    Point taken..didnt mean to come across as if i am perfect..seriously its not really my style.. i think its just a case of older hops...i have kegged many ipas..but never with maris otter. i was thinking along the lines of this malt being the culprit..haha but who the hell knows! ;)

    Smash IPA is carbonation killing hop flavors

    Smash IPA is carbonation killing hop flavors

    I really disagree. I have brewed a lot of IPAS (almost all I brew) and the hop diminishing has never been this drastic..thanks for the reply though

    no this is not the reason at all..there is a very prominent biscuit taste..hops just dont seem to exist in the beer anymore

    Smash IPA is carbonation killing hop flavors

    Cmon seriously? YOu mean to tell me an IPA is past its peek 6 weeks in..not buying that thoery one bit..haha .. I have brewed many many times and this is the first time it has ever happened..just kinda a weird thing.. I am thinking the hops could have been slightly older than I thought.

    Smash IPA is carbonation killing hop flavors

    I recently brewed a Smash IPA with Marris Otter and Mosaic. About two weeks after slow carbing the beer it was FANTASTIC!!! The mosaic hops shined through and it was simply amazing! After about two weeks we noticed the hop flavor really diminishing and the biscuit flavors of the Maris Otter...

    hop trub leftover final wort issues

    I only add water so that it hits my OG.. I am all about keeping my OG in check. I also saw this thread on a similar topic.. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f11/new-way-control-pellet-hop-gunk-352293/ I was just curious if this takes away from the overall hop flavors at all. It seems that a 200...

    hop trub leftover final wort issues

    Ok so I have been noticing that after I started using a bazooka screen that I have a lot of left over wort mixed in with hop gunk at the end of boil. My pump gets clogged and cannot pump anything else through into my Blichmann Therminator which feeds into my fermenter. Because of the hop gunk...

    How much do you keep in the pipeline?

    lately i have been getting my stock built up nicely..i have a three tap system..so 3 serving kegs at one time and i usually have 2 batches fermenting on the backburner.. one just has to put in the time to consistently brew..every weekend or every other weekend works for me..

    tell me about your experiences with mosaic hops

    I really want to do an IPA with Mosaic/Citra combo similar to this. ..I made a few Smash IPAs one with Maris and another with 2-row using Mosaic and the result was decent. I think Mosaic is an excellent hop but it needs something else to carry it. I just did a Simcoe/Mosaic combo this past...
