Homebrewed IPA, original recipe. MAN, that was a success! I was a bit worried it would turn out like our last hoppy beer, which tasted like grass. But this time around, it's epic.

As I understand, most honey in Sweden is supposedly rapeseed honey, although sold as wildflower. You often see a few hives just outside a rapeseed field. In my opinion, the honey is hit and miss. Sometimes you strike gold and sometimes it's just bland.

A tiny batch of bochet. OG is 87, the yeast is rated for 10%. Thinking of adding something after racking, either cold pressed coffe or licorice root or... I don't know...

Had some home brewed porter and then some Innis & Gunn Original. I never liked that Innis & Gunn, some of their limited editions are to die for - but the original is just... meh. But I am amused, as I recalled I didn't like it because I thought it was bitter... how the f? Could hardly tasty...

Many who sells kits also include recipes, heck the NB kits are on Beersmith 2's add-on list. Just click Help/Add-ons/Add and scroll down to the recipe add-ons you want and scale down to 3 gallon BIAB.

All grain. It is SO much more fun, and the result is amazing.

I had bought a can of Coopers Real Ale, to get my feet wet. I didn't expect much from it but ya gotta start with your training wheels on. My memory is a bit fuzzy, I might've added another can of unhopped extract from Munton. What I did wrong... everything. The result: It did not ferment...

Care to share the recipe?

I used to work at a hospital, I'd wait for every department in the hospital to call me and ask me to call in extra personel when needed. Pretty sweet, but boring job. And stressfull as hell at times.

Wow... there's still hops left from 2010 here. They're still fine.

I kinda miss my old job... sitting all alone in a office, with the door closed. During my loooong down periods I'd surf the web, watch movies, listen to music, read, etc... worked one new years weekend, watched 12.5 movies that weekend at work. :P

It's getting a tad OT, but I kind of dislike the fact that I don't like wine. I find wine extremely interesting, it's amazing really... but every time I drink it I'm reminded that it tastes bad. Granted, I haven't had that much wine but the ones I've had have all been very different, but...

This is not a beer making forum. It's a homebrewing forum. Ever heard of... wine? Mead? Cider?

When people say they don't like beer, I always tell them they've never had real beer. But damn... you sure have been trying! Myself, I didn't even like beer when I first decided to brew (I was handed an old homebrew book, and it was interesting). It was during my research into the process I...

Instead of trying to brew something they are supposed to like; why not challange their perception of beer? There's so much out there, and most probably only had lagers. Do a smoked, malty session beer. Not an overly peat beer, of course.

A normal porter is fermented with ale yeast, however baltic porters are usually fermented in lager temperatures.

You could contact him, and probably get a more detailed recipe: http://www.mydestination.com/prague/restaurants/128934/u-medvidku-restaurant-brewery - if you ask really nice. Worth a try, at least.

Reminds me of the classic... "Is this legal?"

I'm way too shy to doing this myself, closest thing is when I've had some competative gaming streamed. :P Good luck, and oh... could you tell us about your brew?
