The results of my first all grain brew are ready to drink. Introducing Gizzy Face APA. Came out pretty clear with just cold crashing, but I will use gelatin going forward as well. It's a good easy drinker with moderate bitterness. It could use some more citrus flavor, so next time I will up the hops a little, and add orange peel when I dry hop as well as in the boil. Overall, I am very pleased with how this came out.

Those first all grain beers really were special, I remember.
Ha! That is the first thing I thought too when I read that name. Not sure which explanation I prefer? I guess it depends on who is drinking it.
Looks great, Ken. Probably even better in the setting.
Some 3.5% Rye Pilsner for a 90 degree day with plenty of humidity. Heavy on the rye (40%), Wyeast 2124.
