Have a saison fermenting with 3711 french saison yeast. After 2 weeks, it's down to ~1.005 and the krausen has dropped. I kept it at 68 degrees for the first week and brought it up to 72 for the second week. OG was ~ 1.06. I used only pilsen LME and 1lb sugar. I'm pretty sure the LME has...

I was inspired to brew a light-colored, herbal/spicy IPA that finishes dry. Not trying to mimic any particular style or beer. Hops: I've had good luck with sterling in saisons and read about Russian River's all sterling IPA that sounded great. Reading hops profiles, I thought glacier might...

I have a good amount of Styrian Goldings I'd like to use in my next brew. After success with my last Amarillo/Simcoe late-hopped IPA, I was thinking of trying the late-hopping/hopburst technique in a Belgian IPA. Below is what I put together. My last Belgian IPA used Styrian Goldings for...

I may be losing it, but it seems like Victory found some magic hop combo and is using it in a number of their beers. A few weeks ago, my last Hop Wallop caught me off guard. It was different than I remembered and really seemed like a dry IPA version of Prima Pils. Now, I'm sipping on a Helios...

The last two IPAs that really stuck out were Victory's Hop Wallop and Port Brewing's High Tide. I think the hop profile in these two beers is substantially different, but I'd really like to copy what they have in common - I'd like to make a reasonably dry, very light in color IPA. Based on...

Figured I should try something darker for the winter. I had a great Espresso Brown Ale at Cigar City in Tampa last week and decided I'd like to try a coffee beer. The Rye and Anise are flavors I like and I thought they might add something unique to the beer. The hops are chosen from what I...

So I brewed up a double IPA last month and it's been bottled for two weeks now. I tested one after a week in the bottle and there was very little carbonation and there was still a very strong sweetness. I know I should give it at least 2-3 weeks in bottles, but all my other batches have been...

Not necessarily trying to clone anything with the below recipe, but I'd like to come up with a dry Belgian IPA/hoppy blond. My favorites are Taras Boulba, Urthel Hop-it, and De Ranke XX Bitter. I doubt those have rye, but I thought it might add a nice complement to citrus hops. I'll be...
