Yuengling Clone


Alright, this was supposed to be my feeble attempt at a Yuengling Clone, came out decent but it's no Yuengling Clone. First of all I don't have the ability to lager it, so I was forced to use Ale yeast.

On the other hand it tastes pretty good so i can't complain all that much, hey I made beer right!

Fallen Wheat 10.16.09


Picked up a can of Munton's Wheat, 3.3 lbs prehopped extract along with a 1 lb bag of Munton's DME, that'll add alot more body to the beer.Had planned on doing a 5 gallon batch with this, then adding 4 oz of Peach exract before adding to the bottling bucket but didnt' have time to pick up the Ale Pale. So for now I split the ingredients, it'll be a 2.13 gallon batch.

I got the water to a nice boil, added 1/2 lb of DME (Dry Malt Exract) , stirred it in real quick that stuff gets hard quick, then poured in half the can of the Wheat extract, stirred that in, poured into the fermenter and pitched the yeast, now all I can do is sit back and let the yeasties do their thing.

I put the remaining Wheat extract into a zip lock bag and into a plastic container that I stuffed in the freezer for now. The DME will stay at room temp as long as it's in a ziplock bag, I'll pick up a Wheat yeast and some Peach extract and I'll make the next batch a Peach Wheat.

Edit 12.01.09: Well here's the finished product, pours well, nice head retention. Decent body, only regret was did not use German yeast , but that i'll do that when I brew up the Hefeweizen, came out pretty good.

Raspberry Lager


A dark red lager with a sweet but tart raspberry finish, this turned out REAL GOOD! I popped one open tonight and had to have another it was so good. It measures out to 4.7 % but it seems stronger than that.









See I'm thinking about ya, I took pics of both pours

Raspberry Lager and Oktoberfest Label Play


Had some time and created new labels for the soon to be released Raspberry Lager and Oktoberfest brews. The Raspberry Lager label looks a tad light, wonder if I can play with that a little more.

Oatmeal Stout


Black as a Midlands night. Oatmeal Stout is a masterful blend of pale, caramel, chocolate and roast malts, along with a generous portion of malted oats. Moderately bitter yet creamy and satisfying, this has the roasted flavor of an English stout and a dense, rich head from the oats for a truly unique experience.

And by the way, it was GOOOOD!!!
