Time For Another Batch!


Tonight, Sam and I bottled our second batch of beer: "Father Brown Ale". This time we brewed an English Nut Brown Ale from another recipe that Sam found. The brewing procedure was fairly similar to the first batch, but with a shorter fermentation time of about 7 days. Also, this time we used a mixture of black patent malt and crystal malt to create a sort of "barley tea" in the wort before adding a darker malt extract, which of course will give the ale a darker color and richer, nuttier taste. Our second batch produced 53 bottles. For those of you who still haven't tried a bottle from our first batch, there are only a few remaining so stop by soon!

There might be a select, special few that may make reservations until time brings more opportune circumstances.

Hey Brian - when are you going to send a case out my way? Actually, I'm going to be up in Bozeman on April 9 (and probably the 10th) so maybe we can find a time to connect then. Speaking of connecting - can you email me at christian.cryder@gmail.com? I have a favor to ask (and I do not have your email address...)

Sorry Christian, but if you had been in my shoes, I am sure that you would have done the same....
