One of my favorite hops. Shhh. Don’t tell anyone about this hop. The price might go up. lol. On second thought. No one should buy this hop. It tastes like a soap bar pulled from an outhouse. Lol In all seriousness, fantastic hop. I love it.

It’s my Friday! Repacked one set of bearings on the camper tonight. Finish the others tomorrow.

I call this mystery ale!!!!! Grabbed what I thought was my last bottle of a brut brewed a few months back. I start that pour and think Amber ale? Wait!!!! I’ve never brewed an amber. Smells good! First taste impression is a watered down scotch type ale. Hold on a minute, my scotch type ale is...

My brew partner and I love brut IPAs. We mash low 140s and add 1 pack to the fermenter when yeast is pitched. We use 1 pack of glucoamylase per 5-6 gallons of wort. This gives us a FG near 1.00.

HB strawberry rhubarb brut IPA. Not my best work but decent.

After 6-1/2 years of brewing I finally built a shelving unit for grain and empty bottles.

I did this a few years ago by accident. After bottling, the beer had a very bitter tannic flavor. A few months later it was better but still tannic. By 6 months it was drinkable and by 8 months it was fantastic. I always let my bourbon oak chips sit in the secondary for 4-6 weeks as I enjoy an...

I’ve used the Brewer’s Best extract with mixed results. Their pineapple in a citrus forward IPA is excellent. The strawberry goes from not flavorful enough to tasting like medicine. Yet my brew partner loved it. I’ve also had good results with a combination of peach and mango. I believe if you...

Between my brew partner and I. 16 gallons black IPA 2 gallons SMASH mosaic 2 gallons SMASH simcoe 680 gallons total.

This was to be an M43 strawberry IPA clone. I’m now calling it Strawberry Gremlin IPA. List of problems I experienced with this batch is, well, not worth typing. All in all, it’s finally bottled and tastes ok. Hoping the next batch goes like normal. 🍻
