Poured my first glass of dry hopped California Common/ Steam beer.
It is a hopped up version of Anchor Steam. I kept my house at 65 degrees for 3 weeks for this beer to ferment properly. Now I can finally reap the rewards (and turn up the thermostat). I highly recommend dry hopping if you love that flowery aroma. |

I can't remember the name of the place I first ordered from, but I've been using Midwest Supplies the last few brews.

Me too. Been about 3 years since I've brewed.

Funny that it has been about that long since I have come and visited you. Coincidence or not???

I'm due too. I wanna try a lower alcohol/calorie beer (@4%abv, like a domestic "lite") with a nice hoppy kick and balanced malt taste. I have some research to do, but will run a small amount of biscuit, and maybe some amber grains to enhance flavor without hitting it too hard with malt sugars. I'm thinking of hopping it like a good western IPA. lots of citrus notes.

During the beginning parts of the fermentation, depending on the yeast, you can throw off a lot of sulphur. A lot of cider yeast does this. Won't effect the end product and nothing to worry about. Stinks like rotten eggs, though.

Never tried that. The smell makes it through the air lock?
