Ok, if you can't guess from that I'm from Texas....
Now, down to business My husband and I started brewing about 3 years ago as something for the two of us to together. It's now to the point that and I'm quoting here, "just cooking beer not brewing". My family has been making whiskey for 300 years so I know a thing or two about mashing grains.
Now, he's seen to it that I'm not included in any part of the decision process on what we brew or how it's formulated for the last year or so. I'm fairly upset about that. Then the question of a women only brewing competition came up and when I mentioned that I'd like to enter it, he started telling me what I was going to brew.
I don't like his beers. His stuff is all too hoppy and I don't really care for 5 oz of hops in a 5 gallon batch. ICK!!! It's not to style and, frankly, it doesn't taste good at all. The flavors aren't balanced and well.... they kinda suck unless you like hops as much as he does.
In short, I'm tired of his macho crap and I'd like to enlist the help of the people on this board so that I can rub his nose it a bit by doing well in this competition.
TIA,
Mor.
