O.K. I brewed this Barleywine in early May. The rough recipe is below and it’s based on a couple of different recipes for a good, big barleywine. I used nice, fresh ingredients. 6 lbs Amber LME 6 lbs Amber LME(late addition) 1 lbs Caramel 120 8 oz Chocolate Malt 1 lbs Corn Sugar 2oz...

I ordered some Clarity ferm through Northern Brewer with the expectation it'd be delivered on a Saturday while I was home. (Because that's what the UPS website said.) It arrived in my city very early on Saturday morning but wasn't delivered until today. It has been sitting at my front door in...

Between Rice Syrup solids and Brown Rice syrup? They're both listed as adding crispness and body to the beer. One of them is a lot more expensive than the other. Obviously I'd like to buy the much cheaper Rice syrup solids but I want my beer to be great so I'll buy the more expensive stuff if...

So, I have a friend who misses beer a great deal, but she has some pretty serious allergy issues that go way beyond my mile Coeliac disease. The only grains she can have are Rice, Teff and Quinoa. Now, I've looked through the entire gluten free section here and sen some really wonderful...

Well, I'm Arlen and I'm a 28 year old Scot living in Boise, Idaho. I'm hoping to get back into brewing in a few months when my work permit finally clears and thought I'd get a jump start/refresher. I have done various simple ales and some fast brews in the past, but it's been some years so...
