Blonde / APA Came out amazing

This came out so well, I just wanted to share. Used some older Tettnanger for bittering, as it came from the 6.1% from the Sam Adams pellets during the shortage in 2008.

I wasn't around here in 2008 - what's the story with the Sam Adams hops?

Sam Adams had some extra Tettnanger hops they sold to the community during last year's hop shortage. They sold them (I think) in like 80 lb lots.... I bought a lb off of someone online.

Sorry to take you off topic, but thanks for the info - that's an interesting story.

I remember it like it was yesterday... The shortage of ought eight.

Looks good, I'm looking for some different ideas for a blonde I'm making on thursday.
