edit: sold!

Alright, I'm at my wit's end here (no pun intended). If I can't figure this out I may have to give up this hobby entirely because the SWMBO will not let me keep dumping money into beer that no one will drink. To sum up: two batches, different beers, same soapy taste. Batch A = True Brew...

So This is my first attempt at formulating a recipe. I based this on several others I've seen/tasted. Looking for input of course. I want the chocolate/coffee element to be the spotlight of this brew. I want there to be no doubt that this is indeed a Mocha beer :mug: BeerSmith Recipe...

Just wanted to bring these guys to everyone's attention. They sell several kinds of beer labels at decent prices. Full wrap, half wrap, round, oval, even classic style with the label for the neck. Not just your average white label either, they sell metallic ones and a few pastel base colors...

So i'm not a great enough brewer to really warrant making labels, but I have a design background (sort of) so I figured why not? here's a label I just completed for what is essentially Northern Brewer's Irish Red Ale: what do you guys think? I'm really new to brewing, so if something...

I'm looking to brew my second batch soon. My first was from a True Brew Amber kit that turned out decent once it aged properly and I got used to the bitterness. I'd like to find another extract recipe or kit that I can drink with my wife and friends. The amber kit I brewed is a little...

well I'm two months into my first brew. It looks beautiful (it's an Amber from an extract kit). It's clear, has a nice head on it, and carbonated well. The problem is it tastes bad. To be honest there's not much of a beer flavor to it, and what flavor there is just doesn't seem right. I'm...

So i've been looking around for the whole process to make a sparkling hard pear cider from pears, and have noticed that I can't find exact recipes anywhere... I've taken what I could from each resource and came up with a process which I think will work, but thought I would consult the experts...

Hello all. I recently paid a visit to a small brewery out west and decided that I simply have to try my hand at brewing my own beers and ciders... I know nothing about the hobby, but I got me some books, and am planning on getting a starter kit. Are there any tips for a complete newbie? Any...
