Thanks for telling me about InBev buying NB. I bought a few things from them. But, this changes things

Oh man. I just found out that InBev just bought Northern Brewer. Bummer. Glad I found out. Sad.

well, if all the ingredients, equipment, and environment have been vetted, then you must have made somebody mad. say a prayer to Ninkasi, the goddess of beer, and sacrifice an russian imperial stout by breaking the bottle on the kettle and do your penance. Cheers!

did the distilled water have any minerals in it? it being distilled, comes from the condensed steam from boiling water that has the minerals in it. If it doesn't have minerals, you might have to add them back in, while checking the pH and other water qualities.. Anybody else have an opinion on...

I was just thinking. Did you use water that has chlorine in it? I have read that chlorine and yeast do not mix well. it can only be either temperature issues (doesn't appear to be), poor yeast, or sanitation. But, if all these are in check, then maybe the quality of the water could be an issue.
