This is awesome! I have a beer fermenting right now that I am calling a Late Hopped Sauvignon Blanc Ale. I used Nelson hops as well but combined it with German Hallertau Blanc hops.

I have a Late Hopped Sauvignon Blanc Ale brewing right now. I'm super excited to see how it turns out. I used Nelson and Hallertau Blanc hops.

Anyone?

I would love help criticizing this recipe. I have never brewed it, but it's something I came up with on my own. Wondering if it will turn out good. Thanks in advance. Basic Information Batch Name: Late Hopped Blonde Ale Brewed By: Corey Style: Blonde Ale Batch Size: 2.50 gal Boil Time...

The temperature has been 70-72 degrees. I primed with regular table sugar, and did calculations beforehand to achieve the...

Hi, I just opened my first beer to check carbonation levels and my beer was flat. There was definitely noise and gas being released, but the beer was completely flat. Does the bottles just need to be refrigerated for a longer period of time for the CO2 to be dissolved?

I brew 2.5 gallon batches and it's perfect for me! I get (19) nineteen 16oz bottles from this, which is just enough for the time spent. I like trying new things, plus if your batch turned out bad, you're not stuck with 5 gallons of beer to drink or give away. Also, a small apartment is a huge...
