Hey guys... Hows it goin?
I just Brewed up my first beer...did a couple of ciders awhile ago but decided I wanted to try a beer. I followed the byo.com advise for your first brew and picked 2 cans of amber extract and 2 oz of fuggle hops. It's in primary right now (brewday was Wednesday) but I'm thinking of what to do next.
My fiance says that she'd like a pale ale or something lighter...but she doesn't like really hoppy beers. I chose the amber extract bc I thought it might be kinda nice to have something kind of out of the ordinary but that we'd still like. I think she'd like something some what dark if it tasted good an all that. I say this bc she likes shiner bock a lot but says she only likes pale beers....
I'm kinda thinking about a christmas/holiday ale bc we're thinking of doing that for gifts next year and it would be kinda cool to try but I'd still like something that I want to drink kinda daily when I got home from work.
Any suggestions?
Something pale-ish would be good but not a must and something that is i guess normally hopped.
A brew kit would be cool but again not a must...I could put together the ingredients of someone else's recipe.
Ok Thanks guys.
