    Good beer turned bad?

    Was hoping to get some feedback or advice. I have been keeping beer for a few years now and haven’t had this happen. I have two beers that I kegged on 8/19/17 (honey brown ale) and 9/17/17(maple pumpkin ale). Both beers have tasted great up until last week. Now they don’t taste like they have...

    Toasted Marshmallows

    I just transferred a s’mores Stout to a third fermentation. I roasted 35 marshmallows on the broil setting on the oven and have added them as well. Right now my specific gravity is 1.022. Starting gravity was 1.067.. How long should I leave the marshmallows with the beer before kegging or bottling?

    I would like to make a S'mores flavored home brew to enjoy around the fire this winter. Does anyone have an extract recipe? I have seen all-grain recipes, but I am not set up for that. Cheers! :mug:

    Gluten free hopped cider
