If you have been following our blog from day 1 you will notice things have been quite for the past couple of weeks. Its not so much that we haven't been working, its just that everything we have been doing has been really boring, paper-pushing, copying-and-collating type of work. Its definitely the "Eye of the Storm" right now. We have been filing sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much paperwork, and waiting for "this" before we can do "that", etc etc. Anyways, I assure you, things are going to pick up, and when they do it will be crazy!
Today we brewed a test batch for a Red IPA. Its 60 IBUs, 7.5% ABV and is made with British Pale Ale Malt, Crystal Malt, Victory Malt, and a dash of Chocolate Malt. We hopped it with lots of Cascade and Centennial hops, and plan to dry hop it a couple times to really get some good hop aromas. We even added 20 grams of Gypsum to it to help the hoppy-ness shine through. the next 14 days will be a nail biter until its ready.
What are we brewing next? Either our Cascadian Dark Ale, or perhaps a traditional IPA. Lots of IPAs brewing up right now.... But, hey, we like them!!
Cheers,
