Thank you for the suggestions, all things to work on and think about.
The hops were just stuff I had on hand and thought it was a little out of place, but would be an interesting combo.
Do you think a starter would be required for this? I've read and heard things about how Brett shines better...
At my work we adopt an Elberta Peach and Le Grande Nectarine tree every year from Masumoto Farms in Del Ray and go down and pick the two trees over two weekends. I always end up with a flat or two of stonefruit. This year I met some guys from the Bruery and another Southern California brewery...
I had planned on waiting for about 6 months to a year before actually getting into it. I'll try some along the way, but that was the original thought. Thanks for the feedback!
First time doing a barleywine and wanted to get feedback on how the recipe looks, thanks!
