My best (non) IPA
« on: June 03, 2016, 02:23:58 pm »
So - on a whim i decided to try natural carbing in my keg. It was truly a comedy of errors, starting with my math. I accidentally tossed in twice as much priming sugar as was called for. Then, after a few days, a strange impatience took over. I hooked up the keg and served it. Immediately I noticed a tart estery flavor that was not present at the end of fermentation ( and should not be present in my new Kolsch ).

But I had company about, and so i agreed to let everyone taste. The number 1 response "This is the best smoothest IPA I have ever tasted."  ???

Honestly I was ready to take it out and let it finish, but it was a bit of a large party, and the keg is now empty. I think I need more discerning friends.

Way to find that beer's target audience! Well done

Fermenting: Nothing (ugh!)
Conditioning: Nothing (UGH!)
In keg: Nothing (Double UGH!)
In the works:  House IPA, Dark Mild, Ballantine Ale clone(still trying to work this one into the schedule)
