Thanks for your words, Pistol. So to answer the question "Why am I doing this?" is simple: I honestly enjoy the experimentation, the tinkering of methods and processes to create my own beer... the reason I want to create my own beer is for 1) a great deal of personal satisfaction; 2) so I know EXACT...

That's what I love about this hobby... realistically, it's hard to make a *bad* beer.. so even if your new recipe or equipment or procedure doesn't get you exactly what you were expecting, you still have 5 gallons of beer that's as good and still often better than what's sitting on the shelf at the ...

I've got no problem bumping the IBUs. In retrospect, it does seem silly to push the OG and not push the IBUs..

Cheers, all! @Stux... I'm running on the assumption I don't need any sort of approval... besides, as you can see from the pictures, our yard is completely enclosed with trees and hedges... keep your fingers crossed for me. :-) @BoC... no airports nearby!! ;-) @Wiz... agreed. I'm a little cranky that...

The only one I've tried is by a Vermont Micro called Otter Creek brewing. They call it "Alpine Black IPA" and it's like chewing a mouthful of hops. I absolutely love it.
