I'm on a similar quest for marshmallow flavor. My story is that I was interested in brewing a toasted marshmallow brown ale, and once I stated that, my other brew friends decided to brew something similar to a Youngs Double Chocolate Stout, and the other a Honey Graham Ale. We're each trying to...

I must confess that my friends and I were each talking about individually brewing the 3 parts to a s'more beer. I was talking about wanting to brew a toasted marshmallow brown ale, and my other brewing friends stated that they were wanting to make a chocolate beer in the vein of Young's Double...

I love rye beers, I just picked up a 6er of ruthless and it didn't last long. I've got a rye pale ale in secondary that actually tastes quite similar, though I believe mine is just a bit sweeter (probably due to honey malt). I've never had ruthless before, but it's already a main favorite of...

I'm not into baseball, but I AM into word play and themes... I dig the theme, and the beer names, and especially the scribbled logo... It's actually a really awesome logo, did you draw it?

Hey all... I've been playing with a recipe and I would like some advice. I am going a bit backwards with this recipe, as I didn't really care what style I brewed, I just wanted a crisp, hoppy red ale. Could be a Ruby, could be an irish red, could be an American Amber... Not too concerned. The...

I used 15% flaked rye in my latest Rye PA (all grain) batch. There is a very similar taste on the back end to the ruthless rye, which I assume is the rye. I didn't use any crazy hops, just cascade and galena for a citrusy/floral bite. I know I'm being bias, but after my non-dry hopped and...

I'm originally from the quad city area, obviously (to us) the rock island area. I think that's pretty rad to see someone else on this forum from my old stomping grounds. To the man who is using Arsenal City, that is indeed a pretty bad ass name. :rockin:

I have been a video game enthusiast my whole life, and now I'm pretty obsessed with home brewing. I have been naming my beers by paying homage to the games I've always loved, and thought I should call my "brewery" something that relates to that. I think I have settled on 99-Lives Brewing, or...

I actually used the San Diego Super Yeast in my last batch of Rye-U Hadoken Pale Ale. I had never used it before, and it was only the second time I've used yeast from a vial, usually I use slap packs. The fermentation started off slower than normal, but then it did it's thing for a few days. I...

I am a huge fan of Rye beers. Ruthless Rye has, by far, been my favorite. I have brewed a Rye Pale Ale (known as the Rye-U Hadoken Pale Ale) a couple times, and my latest batch that I just tested gravity on and taste tested was very similar to Ruthless Rye. Mine is a little sweeter, probably...

I just wanted to say that I too am from Chicago and am currently enjoying a pint of 5 Vulture. My work has it on tap, which is the best. I was just searching for a clone recipe, and saw your post. Have you had any luck in the last several months?

Sorry to revive this thread, but isn't a benefit of adding the other half the water to the wort after it's in its primary container to aerate the wort before adding the yeast?

I'm a pretty new brewer. I just brewed my 3rd batch, an oatmeal stout, which was actually my first batch with my own equipment at my own house. The first two were brewed at a friends house with his equipment, a smoked porter and a rye pale ale. All have been partial grain/extract kits, but after...
