Question: Can I do more than one entry per contest? I'm sitting on 6 different kegs and bottles of various stuff I can review.
I believe @detlev will accept multiple entries however your most popular entry will be the one that earns your tickets for the lotto. I'm sure @detlev will correct me if I'm wrong.
OK, thanks. I'll do one per week because I don't brew every week.
Sure, you can do more posts per week, but to be fair only the one with the most votes counts for the challenge.
I love this review, I'm also a recent convert to home-brewing. Your use of foraging in your brew is also an incredibly inspired idea. Great work.
Thanks! I'm a big fan of alternative ferments and "wild" beers. You will see more discussions of this sort of thing from me in the future. Often I will do brett beers (so often that I had to order 10 new fermenting buckets due to contamination!). I've also got a "magic stick" wine stave that I used to ferment a mixed fermentation from Highland Park Brewery (aka The Hermasillo) that was super awesome but took a good 6+ months to really come together. I'm planning on doing a solara in a keg with this stave as a mini barrel very soon. I'll take pictures of my stone age brew process if you are interested in getting more out of your sessions with relatively small vessels. Please confirm and I can do a post for you specifically.
That would be amazing @gmikeyg. I’m sure a few of us here would be fascinated to read about your brew process. :)
OK, I'll work on documenting and writing up what I do. I focus on conservation of effort and efficiency of time, but not at the exclusion of saving money. Fore example, I'll buy my hops by the 11 lbs bale on lupuline exchange and just keep them in the freezer. It allows me to use them by the handful instead of worrying about measuring them out by the ounce and being stingy.
Great post with a good looking beer!!
