The Great Pumpkin does exist. It doesn’t distribute toys; instead it makes a nice fall beer to get us to the holidays. I always look forward to Buffalo Bill’s pumpkin beer, but, I’m not trying to make a clone of it. Instead, I mostly followed this recipe, and some advice from here, as well. I have fresh [...] Inspired by Highlands Hollow ginger wheat beer, I was under special request to make something similar. Spoke with the bartender, and he had some idea about how it was made: 75% 2-row; 25% wheat; 3# fresh ginger in a 217G batch added during the last 5-10 minutes of the boil; wasn’t too sure on the hops, [...] Needed a good hot summer day beer and was recently reminded of the Allagash White. Should have followed this recipe more closely since the one I used was based on an extract recipe. The gravity is a bit low and the real deal uses a blend of malted and raw wheat. Batch #8, brewed 6/20/10: 5.25 Gallon batch Our first morning on the island was dominated by jet lag. Kids on regimented sleeping schedule suffer jet lag even worse than adults. Even though they went to bed at 10PM home time (2+ hours later than normal), that first morning they woke up promptly at their regular 7:30 time, which was 4:30 local [...] Valerie had done a bunch of searching to get us into a Luau that wasn’t going to break the bank with 3 kids in tow. We had it on good authority that the Old Lahina Luau was the best, most authentic. But, at $250 for the adults and 1 child, it was [...] Our first Hawaii vacation started with a 7:30 AM flight out, non-stop from SJC to OGG, Kahalui, Maui on Alaska Airlines, oddly enough. We were fortunate enough to have a flight that was maybe 60% full and the gate agent was an angel and blocked out 2 empty seats for the twins so that [...] Tried out this recipe. Ingredients actually used: 8lb 8oz American Two-row 60 mins 1 oz Palisades pellet 8.0 Got crazy with the cheese whiz and decided to try my hand at all-grain brewing. Found this recipe and thought I’d give it a try. Due to availability, this is what I ended up with: 7# RAHR 2-row malt Newcaslte Nut Brown Ale is made from a blend of two different beers. Working from this recipe as my guide, I’m attempting to do a single-batch replication using extract. 4# light dry malt extract Second batch of beer finished up — a Belgian Trappist Dubbel (double). Ingredients: 6 lbs Coopers Dry Malt Extract (DME) |
