Pumpkin Oktoberfest 2010 : Batch #15

December 9, 2010

Pumpkin Spiced German Oktoberfest 2010 After being less than impressed with the Oktoberfest I brewed last year, I wanted to mix things up a bit this year.  I’ve really been enjoying pumpkin spiced beers the last couple of years, and thought that last year’s boring Okto would benefit from a little pumpkin spice, thus the [...]

Brewers Best Witbier : Batch #12

September 28, 2010

Brewer’s Best Witbier Kit I’m always a season behind, so why wouldn’t I brew a Witbier just in time for Winter?

Brewing a Dunkelweizen – Homebrew Batch #8

January 29, 2010

Brewing Russian Imperial Stout – Batch #7

October 20, 2009

Looking forward to the cold MT Winter months, I wanted to brew something dark and hearty. I’d also brewed several batches back-to-back, and had the luxury of making a beer that could sit and age for a while. When I went down to my local homebrew shop, I asked about the various dark beer kits [...]
