Brews Thus Far

My first successful batches brewed were Westcoast Pale Ale and KolschBier. The pale ale was not a bad brew, but sort of plain. I'm more accustomed to a more highly hopped beer, but a good drink ability for brewing novices.

The Kolschbier. A light slightly fruity weizen with tettnanger hops to produce a dry hoppy finish. Very good and friends who tried claim it rivalled that of a local brew pub's version of this brewing style.

A couple of weeks later two new recipes had arrived Honey Brown Ale and Stickey Wicket Stout.
Now we're talking flavor! The ale had a great flavor, reminiscent of Newcastle and the like. With the addition of honey to the wort, this time around a saw little more preparation. Another good and basic recipe that was enjoyed by all.

Right now we are still enjoying the Sticky Wicket Stout (see picture). This is like velvety caramel toasted nuts. Strange I know, but this really is an accurate description. Black as midnight and a thick caramel colored head...delicious!

In the near future, many new recipes will tried here and results posted. Enjoy your visit and be sure to bookmark Brewster's Homebrew Blog.
