It looks like the water in the trash compactor scene in the first Star Wars (Episode IV) when that weird snake thing pulls Luke under and tries to strangle him.

I tried to make a Strawberry Belgian Milk Stout. I’m pretty sure it didn’t work.

I’m hoping for a sweet stout with some spiciness from the Belgian yeast and a tippity touch of strawberry flavor on top.

I’m not sure if I want to call this a White Chai Ale or a Chai White Ale or something else way more clever than that. Whatever it ends up being called, it better be F-ing good because I just spent all god damn day making it.

A traditional Gose is typically brewed with 50-60% wheat, a small amount of hops, and coriander and salt for flavoring. It’s supposed to be a little sour too. You might think of it as a salty/sour Witbier. Actually, you might not cause you don’t know shit, but trust me.

I’m a big fan of sour beers. So I thought, why not set an unreasonable goal for myself and try to have a constant flow of sour beers fermenting so I always have one ready to drink.

I’m not exactly sure what a Homebrew Log Jam is but I needed something that sounded even more “backed up” than Homebrew Backlog since I’ve brewed like 7 or 8 beers since my last homebrew related post. I guess I’ll start where I left off.

Back in April I posted about brewing a Belgian Saison. Well, that one has since been bottled and drank. I think I had the last one a couple weeks ago. The kit I used suggested “cellaring” this one so I saved a six pack for as long as I could, although not in a cellar. I think the last ones probably tasted better but that might have just been in my head.

I swear the idea for having my own site was to have a place to write about web design, music and other things I’ve been doing for a long time but not really writing about. So far it’s looking like a beer blog. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, I’m just saying I realize […]

I’ve been wanting to try brewing my own beer for a while now and this past weekend finally did it.
