Homebrewer Nathan Smith is elected to brew this wonderful craft beer and try his luck at reproducing it. Scott Vaccaro, the brewmaster and owner at Captain Lawrence also joins the program to lend his guidance. Tune in and see if the crew is able to make it happen!
What happened to the hop schedule?by Belgian Bomber, February 08, 2010
During the interview section, there's a major blip in his explanation about the hop schedule, jumping from the FWH to the whirlpool (there's a clip noise there, like it was cut). The in the CYBI recipe, they're adding 80-min and 20-min hops. What did the brewer say in that section?
Cheers!

yeast tempby David, February 13, 2010
I agree 100% with fermenting the 530 Abbey yeast at a higher temp. I have had great luck with letting this yeast ferment hot. I have done a bunch of batches @ 66 degrees ( recommended minimum temp) and they come thin and boring.
