Batch 87: Pliny the imposter
Batch 81: Ryan’s IPA
For the past few years, folks at the BPRU have organized a charity auction. Nothing too huge or outlandish, but we’ve raised a fair penny each year for a good cause. Last year and this year, I offered a case of home-brewed beer, brewed to order, and this year the prize was won by my […]

Based on the following Pliny recipe: Russian River Pliny the Elder […]

Batches 16-18: Fashionably Late, Double the Trouble (DIPA)
A year ago tomorrow, I started home brewing. Hells yeah, 16 batches!!! As the final brew of our California experience, and in homage to our amazing time here, I am going to brew an Imperial IPA. I’ve named it ‘fashionably late, double the trouble’ as it’s a double IPA characterized by late additions of some […]
Batch 8: Citra Cascade IPA
first beer with the new cooler mash tun! I have a sub-optimal mash tun manifold, made of a single tube of 1/2″ PEX with 1/8″ slits cut every 1/2″ by a dremel with a high-speed cutter. Next time, I will have a more complex and appropriate manifold. Recipe: http://hopville.com/recipe/1600762/american-ipa-recipes/shinken-shobu Boiled 1.5gal 15 min, added to fermenter […]
