It's been a long time since I posted any brew day pics, so I thought I would take some of my latest. I brewed an IPA on Saturday, April 4 in honor of the birth of a friend's son. This is the second time I have brewed this recipe, tweaking the grain bill slightly from the first time. I really like this beer, and so does my friend.
