I second Koed. Ed Wort has a good recipe. I brewed this batch 12 days ago. 7 days primary. 3 Secondary. 2 in the keg. Not an award winning beer but it cost under $20 to brew (had my own yeast) and is drinkable. If you have a couple more weeks you could have a much better beer. Search under...

I did some looking and it is not available in Austin or any of the surrounding towns (that I am aware of). The bottled version was really good though. If/When I make it up to Colorado, I'll definitely have to try it on tap!

Thanks Kite. The insight is golden. I agree that breweries list hop additions that may be negligible to the homebrewer and may be misleading. This is why I tend to rely more on homebrewer experience. I'm going to give your recipe a go round. Probably on a 5 gal scale to test. I'd like to add...

Thanks so much Kite. I'm having my first taste of this brew and really liking it. I was looking at an earlier posting that listed Chinook and Goulding additions.Is there a reason you left them out. Same with the roasted barley. I would expect a small addition of vanilla beans as well as a 3-4...

Thanks Z. This may be the simple addition I've been looking for. I'll try to remember to post back on my findings. My beers have just been a little off and I'm thinking it's the water. Round Rock water is pretty bad and I've only been using a standard charcoal filter.

I would love to hear how this turns out should you decide to brew a batch. I've had similar foods that gave a numbing experience in the mouth and have wondered how it would carry over in a beer. Betel nuts are what I had in mind.

The message was from nilo but I'm pretty sure the 167 was supposed to be 67.

I've been using the BrewLogic dual tap system for about a year now. I tightened all the connections when I got. One of the kegs was kind of ugly and beaten but it is functionally sound. I have to say its the best bang for your buck
