Back in the Saddle

Yesterday I brewed again.  Did an extract recipe from NB called Sinistral Warrior IPA.  Was a pleasure after wrestling with all grain for so long, although I miss the brewing from “first principles”.  OG was 1.065.  Went with the Wyeast smack pack rather than the dry.

Yeast pitched around 6pm on 8/8/10.  Seeing bubbles from blowoff tube by 6am (abt once every 12 seconds) 8/9/10.

MMmmmm. Beer.

My brother and I really like beer.  He thought it would be a great idea to get me a brewing kit.  It was.  Now we’re both home brewing.  It’s not the best home brew on the planet (yet).  But it is still beer.

Our goal for this blog is to share our beer experiences with each other, plus anyone else who likes beer enough to want to talk about it!
