Friends, Family, Brewers,
Our blog has fallen to the way side. I will be working over the next couple of weeks to revive it. The last post was the Scottish Ale Brewday. That Scott is getting better with time and I think in another 4 weeks it will be stellar. I will be sending it out to my brewthers and brewisters hopefully this week...I'm excited to share.
I am about to go on a brewing rampage. It's lager season! Last weekend I brewed an IPA and this upcoming weekend I am starting a lager series. I am going to start with a German style Pilsener, then proceed to a Helles/Dortmund style brew. After that I am not sure what I will brew but my 4th lager will be my favorite style of beer, Oktoberfest. I'm hoping to have a whole bunch of brew lagering away in a couple of short months.
Somewhere in between all of this lager activity, I am going to rebrew my very first all-grain Arkansas batch, the Pig Trail Ale (Hoppy Brown Ale). The water in this area is best for darker beers and since I love malt and hops, I think this is going to be my standard brew that I am going to perfect. I was not thrilled with my first batch of this and know this next batch will be a huge improvement!
Anyways, my next post will have some picks of the IPA brewday and a tasting of the Scottish.
Until then, have a brew for me and a wine for Ash (or a drink of your choice if you abstain from alcohol)!
YAY I was wondering if you had given up on the blogging... Glad to see a few words and looking forward to future updates. <3
