I recently did a batch of belgian leuven pale ale from AHS and have lost the instruction sheet and now I need some advice. My question is how long on averarge do you let something like this condition before it is tasty and drinkable. At this point I have done 3 weeks in primary and 1 week in...

Ive been reading a lot about kolsch beers people are making on the forum and they sound good but I want to try the style before I go and make 5 gallons worth. I live in southern wisconsin and most of the liquor store owners are either ignorant (young like me) or jerks so I was wondering what...

I have just very recently started to brew beer and have a fancy to try other forms of brewing, in this case cider. What got me to thinking about this happened when I was walking through my local farmer market and saw them selling gallon jugs of cider and remembered some wonderful glasses of...

As you can tell by the thread I am posting in I am a aspiring brewer and I am curious as to what the easiest type of beer to make is for a beginner. I have done a little reasearch and from what I can see there are kits that require boiling of ingredients and those that don't. Is there a big...
