I just bottled DragonTail's Ginger Ale and that used FORTY ounces of fresh ginger. But the ginger is boiled for a pretty long time so the heat mostly mellowed out, leaving only ginger flavor. I tasted the wort and it was a nice ginger flavor with a bit of heat. After two weeks of fermentation...

Hi everyone! I just got into brewing a few weeks ago when my wife got me a homebrewing kit for Valentine's Day. I was floored--truly the best present my wife has gotten me. I don't think she realizes what she got herself into! It started as a fun weekend project for me and now I'm already...
