Oatshaker by Alarmist which is a brewery in Chicago. Pretty decent NEIPA which is not my favorite style but this is an enjoyable beer.

Obviously at some point the market will start to trend down due to over saturation. What I hope happens is that each town will eventually have it's own brewery like before prohibition. A brewery just opened in my town and the beers are ok but continue to improve.

Brewed a Maris Otter Amarillo SMaSH. Only issue was missing my steeping hops temp by 5 degrees but I'm sure it will turn out well. Getting over a stomach bug so this was the first time I brewed without having any brew to drink. Cant wait to break in my keg system with this one.

When you place the fermenter in a refrigerator for 48 hours to put the yeast to sleep and let all the sediment settle into the yeast cake. It is not a necessary step but many Brewers do it.

Congrats on the first beer. Welcome to the obsession.

Tried my first attempt at an NEIPA. Turned out well. Still a bit green so I will wait another week before chilling all of them. Only had one week in the bottle.

This but replace Country with Metal inuding but not limited to Sevendust, Killswitch Engage, Lamb of God, Ghost, etc. Sometimes I switch it up with classic rock. If I'm by myself I just relax a d HbT it up. If a friend is over I explain the process in a way they can understand stand.
