same beer, last year.


Pliny the Younger clone in one of those new Sierra Nevada/Dogfish/Sex Toy IPA glasses.
Ah the new IPA glass. How do you like it?
It's really nice. Very thin, but it works as advertised. The shape really breaks out the carbonation which lifts the aroma.
Krovitz said:My first all grain. Mosaic Pale Ale. It's wicked good.
We all know how important aroma is in IPAs, but because the shape breaks out the carbonation, do you feel that it goes flat too soon?
The shape is just right, it doesn't start hitting the ridges until you're half way through the beer. It has less carbonation near the end, but it was designed well.
Worth a purchase would you say?
Got a MPA dry hopping with and oz of it right now! Can not wait! How was it?
Krovitz said:I love it. Just wish I could have brewed more than 3.5 gallons.
What did your hop schedule look like?
Mine went like this:
All mosaic-
.3oz @60min
.2oz @30min
.5oz @20min
.5oz @10min
.5oz @2min
And I I'm dry hopping with another oz.
Banana bread wheat. Came out awesome!

Super stoked on this, my first beer West Coast Pale Ale waaaay better then I first thought it was going to be. Lacing and head retention is pretty good. This site is awesome a wealth of information that I used towards this brew. planning on doing a porter next.
