I have made about 4-5 beers since the last time I posted on this page here.
Crazy.
Should be really good. We also have more bottles now so we can have more beer concurrently! I am very happy as right now I will soon have 3 different beers to choose from in the bottle.
Raspberry Wheat is now in the bottle
Wit is in the bottle. Tastes damn good.
Raspberry wheat is on its way!
Wit beer is in the fermenter
Next up is a Belgian Wit beer.
It is pretty damn hoppy, but it has a ton of bubbles in it.
The Anchor Steam clone should be going into the bottle soon. We really need to start working away on our 4th beer.I am thinking about a Wit beer. A belgian white beer.
The first beer is almost all gone.
The second one is in the bottle. (should be ready in about 2 weeks)
The third one is in the primary fermenter(but we need to get it into some place cold for a couple weeks)
Another American variation on a German tradition, our third wheat beer kit shares the sour, phenolic characteristics of its cousins. Pure clover honey, however, makes it lighter, crisper, and adds a subtle, floral note. Sparingly hopped, Honey Weizen may become your next great brewing tradition.
Noble Trappist Ale: You don’t need to visit a Belgian monastery to enjoy a fine Trappist Ale. This regular strength Trappist Ale is easy to brew and a pleasure to drink. Yeast cultured from a bottle of Chimay will perfect this recipe. Wyeast recommended for best results. Our ingredients for this recipe include: 6 lb. Gold liquid malt extract, 1 lb. Clear Belgian candi sugar, 8 oz. Caramel 40°L, 8 oz. Carapils specialty grains, 3 oz. Hallertau hops, yeast priming sugar, and a grain bag. Noble Trappist Ale w/ Nottingham dry yeast. The price of this kit has gone up $1.80 due to the increase of hop prices.
California Steam: This recipe allows you to brew a lager at ale temperatures. This American style of beer was made popular during the gold rush. Similar to Anchor Steam. We do not recommend brewing this recipe without using the California Liquid yeast. Our ingredients for this recipe include: 6 lbs. Gold liquid malt extract, 8 oz. Carapils, 8 oz. Caramel 40°L specialty grains, 2 oz. Northern Brewer, 1 oz. Cascade , yeast, priming sugar and a grain bag. The price of this kit has gone up $1.80 due to the increase of hop prices.
We also have the second batch in the bottle, so hopefully in 2-3 weeks we will have some beer to enjoy. I actually am starting to get into this stuff.
Next up may be a kegging system. If we can consistently make some decent beer.
