I had to call an audible. I was going to brew a MyBock which would have been a small batch but I kicked a keg recently so need to ensure the draft pipeline doesn’t have any hole in it. That means a full 5 gal batch of Super Chuck Pale Ale. The MyBock will have to wait until the APA is kegged.

A friend is coming over to brew and we'll split it.  It will still last a while!

Our LHBS is hosting this year & we're hoping for decent turnout from the HBC...

I'm going to split 18L into a triplet of wheats for another yeast comparison: hefeweissen, witbier, and Philly Sour.

Today is the day. I am finalizing my black ale recipe. The only think I know from sure is I’ll be using lager yeast. From what I am reading on the packet dry lager yeast is more forgiving with temps and brülosophy gave me hope to play around with this yeast

I did my big brew yesterday.  An American Wheat and a Sour Mash Ale.  Both are currently bubbling away downstairs.

Have fun today everyone!!

Hope you have better luck with it than I did.  In 23 years and 579 batches, that yeast made the worst beer I've ever made.
