BrewDog Show

[mRandolph]

I'd like to brew it and look forward to hearing how it goes from you all. It won't be for a while as I'm unfortunately away from home at the moment. Fortunately I'm away in the UK and just took shipment of a mix-six pack of Brewdog brews and a bottle of their Atlantic IPA. At $16 for just the 12oz bottle of the IPA, I hope it is as memorable as it promises to be. We're having a group tasting session on Thursday and I'll post something in the review section when we get done with it.

Got mine in the fermenter yesterday. I over shot my gravity a bit. I was aiming for 1.036 and got 1.042. It's kicking away in the corner. It's a bit warm, but it should be okay. I will keep you posted.

Is anyone else besides Dirk planning on brewing this? I've got my ingredients, just need to find a day off of diaper duty to brew it.


Hehehe. I said duty...

New Show Idea: "Can you change it?" ( without puking your guts out )

Brewed it on Sunday. Hit my target of 1.037 and it is currently churning away in the fermenter (used Wyeast 1098 as I couldn't get any Nottingham - it's a beast!). Efficiency was about 10% more than expected, so I had to add some water pre-boil. Figured it wasn't worth adjusting the hops to compensate . First beer I have brewed where the hops cost more than twice as much as the malt.

Even got a call from my HBS after I placed the order asking if I had made a mistake and requested too much Caramalt in the grain bill.

Boil smelt wonderful, wort tasted pretty scary.

Boil smelt wonderful, wort tasted pretty scary.

It did smell good, didn't it?
I am adding the dry hops today.

Keep us all updated on how these turn out... I've got that on my list of things to brew. It's about 4th in line after a batch of Janet's Brown, Tasty's APA, Juniper Blonde... then How To Disappear Completely. Can't wait!!!

Plus I've already got my Community Brew Saison going... should be able to bottle this weekend - if the gravity is right.

I couldn't wait any longer and sampled this. It's a bit thin, even for being flat, but the flavor is amazing. I expected something wildly bitter and out of balance. But it's amazing how good this is. I will be kegging it this weekend, so by the end of the month, I should have something more to report. It's not a citrusy as Tasty's beer, a bit more piney, but damn good.
